Visited Belchite. The town was the focus of fierce battles during the Spanish civil war, being captured by Republican forces as they sought to reconquer Aragon which had endorsed the coup d'etat of Franco.

The town, whilst heavily bombarded, did survive the war, many of the buildings in these images were still inhabited into the 1950s. But Franco wanted to make an example of the town, being one of few the Republicans captured after Nationalists had seized parts of the country. So a new town was built, soulless and suburban, and now home to a population a third the size of what it was before the civil war.

Franco insisted the old town be left to rot as a monument to what communism does, ironic of course as it is the clearest example of what fascism does.

Highly recommend visiting. The area was a front line in the civil war and therefore there is a lot of history around.

ENG: I just handed in an assignment for my SPAN101 class.
ESP: Entregué mi tarea por la clase de SPAN101.

We had to make a one-page brochure about a Spanish speaking country plus a 2min video.
Nosotros debimos hacer una pagina en un folleto sobre un país de habla hispana.

I made a full, folding, brochure for Spain using mostly my own photos.
Hice un folleto completo para España haciendo principalmente mi propio fotos.

I ain't sharing the video.
No quiero la vergüenza de compartir mi video. ☺️

Pero! Aquí está mi folleto para visitar España.

I'm now getting to the point where I can write down most of what I want to say, using mostly present and past tenses, without help. And then I check my work on a translator. Getting about 80% of it right 90% of the time lol.
