Description
"The national anthem of Spain goes by the name, Marcha Real. And unlike other countries, it does not consist of any lyrics. Which can be found quite strange from an outside perspective. It was originally composed in 1761, by Manuel de Espinosa de los Monteros. And at the time, served in purpose of marches that stood behind the Spanish Infantry. However, during the dictatorship of General Francisco Franco, lyrics were added by a fascist poet, who went by the name of José María Pemán. And once democracy took over the nation, the lyrics were permanently removed, and never spoken of again."
