20-N is observed in Spain every November 20, commemorating the death anniversaries of two controversial figures: José Antonio Primo de Rivera and Francisco Franco. José Antonio Primo de Rivera, a lawyer and politician, founded the far-right political movement Falange Española and was executed on this date in 1936 during the Spanish Civil War. Francisco Franco, a general who ruled Spain as a dictator from 1939 until his death in 1975, also died on November 20. The date is primarily marked by far-right groups who organize public demonstrations, with significant events taking place at the Valley of the Fallen, the burial site of both figures. The observance of 20-N reflects the ongoing complexities of Spain's historical narrative and the political divisions surrounding these figures.
