Federico García Lorca's execution occurred during which conflict?

• A. World War I
• B. World War II
• C. The Spanish Civil War
• D. The Napoleonic Wars

Answer: (C)

The event happened during the Spanish Civil War. This conflict began in 1936 when Nationalist forces, led by Franco, rose up against the elected Republican government in Spain. Lorca, a prominent writer known for his liberal and left-leaning views, was executed by Nationalist authorities early in the war, making his death a symbol of the repression that occurred during that period. The other options refer to conflicts in different times and places, not the period of Lorca’s life or death.
