Although the anti-Spanish myth of Freemasonry is informally consolidated at the end of the Spanish Civil War with the promulgation of the famous Law for the Repression of Freemasonry and Communism on March 1st 1940, by the new Head of State, Francisco Franco , the truth is that since the end of the 19th century the Order of the Great Architect of the Universe was identified by the media, politicians and the Catholic Church, as one of the main agents that intend to put an end to Spain,. Whether on the religious arena, with the supposed persecution of everything related to Catholicism, or in the political and imperial arena as, during the time when Freemasonry was accused of trying to overthrow the constitutional monarchy and provoke the Disaster of 1898, an event that meant the loss of Spain’s last imperial vestiges.
