- Abstract:
- The transcendental changes wrought during the Great War in military art aroused the interest of the Spanish military. But despite the eagerness to reform the military and politicians of the time, little was done at the end of the struggle to improve the organization of an army that maintained a structure more typical of the nineteenth century. In sum, the necessary technical reform was still not fully implemented, something that continued during the dictatorship of Primo de Rivera and the Republic, although during this time there was an attempt to diversify its organization.
