Overview
Spain, once the conqueror of other nations, is now an unstable and fractured country. There is no valid central government; its king is a hated foreigner who was foisted upon them by an invasion, and their oldest enemies are set to become their greatest allies.
Until recently, Spain was allied with Bonaparte’s France, and dreamed of sharing in the spoils of France’s new glorious empire. Napoleon, however, betrayed Spain’s trust, overthrowing the Spanish government and putting his own brother, Joseph, on the throne. Instead of the minor trouble that Napoleon expected, he was faced with a revolt of such scale and ferocity that his army of occupation could not stop it. For the first time, France’s seemingly invincible armies were shaken, not by an enemy in the field, but by the spanish people.
Up until now, with no universally recognized central government, Spain has been ruled by small juntas, and internal quarrels and a lack of organization mean that the Spanish Army has had little leadership. The Spanish guerrilla bands, groups of freedom fighters using the tactics of brigands, may be Spain’s greatest assets, but their military strength is negligible, and more suited to raiding rather than open warfare. The correct use of these forces and a strategy that plays to any and all Spanish strengths may be the key to pushing back, and, ultimately, beating the French. Britain could be a valuable ally against the common enemy, but the British must always be watched carefully. Spain has not been fortunate in her allies, and the British are among the oldest of Spain’s enemies.
The people of Spain, then, must look to build-up their forces, while using their guerrilla-bands to keep the french occupiers busy. At the same time, building an alliance with Britain, no matter how painful, is a necessary evil.
