EFFECTS OF THIS IMMIGRATION WAVE
Many years ago, the Spanish Immigration to America was dominated by their Roman Catholic Religion. The idea of spreding their religion among the other countries was seen as a primary reason which made many of the Spaniards move to other countries. Spanish immigration was also due to the opportunities people were offered and of the exploitation of the natural resources of the New World. Later on, Spanish Immigration was also prompted by the desire of political and religious freedom and to escape from the poverty, wars and employment problems that were happening by then.
On the twenty's century, a significant wave of Spanish immigration to other countries occured when the dictator known as "Franco" came to power and ended the Spanish Republic. Between 1946 and 1958, about 624,000 people left the country for overseas. Many people immigrated to other countries in order to escape from the Spanish Civil War. After his death in 1975, over the next twenty years, there were lots of poverty that made the Spanish immigration increase.
