Explanation:

Loyalists in the Spanish Civil War fought to defend the existing government - backed by the Second Spanish Republic - which was associated with reforms and a more liberal constitution. They were not fighting to learn about advanced weaponry for World War II, nor were they forced to support Franco (Franco was the leader of the Nationalist forces), but rather to oppose his forces and uphold the Republic.

Answer:

They wanted reform and a more liberal constitution.
