Question

how did francisco franco gain power? a. he received support from the soviet union. b. he was elected head of the spanish government. c. he formed the international brigade to assist nationalist fighters. d. he led an uprising against the popular front government.

Explanation:

Francisco Franco gained power by leading a military uprising against Spain's left-leaning Popular Front government in 1936, which sparked the Spanish Civil War. The Soviet Union supported the Republican (government) side, not Franco's Nationalists. Franco was not elected to power, and the International Brigade was made up of volunteers supporting the Republican forces, not Franco's Nationalists.

Answer:

D. He led an uprising against the Popular Front government.
