I was very surprised how little education there is amongst Spaniards about the Franco area, how this plays a significant role in the catalonian independence desires. Also how little processing of the Franco regime there was (compared to Germany), I mean the last Franco statue was removed only last year.

La transición was way too soft, out of fear of a coup d'etat. Decades later and we still suffer the consequences of that fear.
Like just rebranding their fascist tribunal? In the same building with the same people, but one day they become Democrats.

Amazing story.

Also, they have a tribunal that has two powers, and another one that decides if money has been well spent, if they decide otherwise you get to pay with your properties.

Amazing country, and is part of EU.
