The Catholic church was heavily involved in the matter. National Catholicism in Spain was an allied supervised directly by the Vatican. Generalissimo Franco asked Germany to bomb Guernica and Madrid during the Spanish civil war. Franco was busy with the civil war and did not participate directly, which was part of the deal, for which he was going to get Gibraltar and other possessions.
