List of Spanish Republican divisions. The following is a list of the divisions of the Popular Army of the Spanish Republic. During the Spanish Civil War, the Republican government organized a number of mostly infantry divisions for national defense under Prime Minister Francisco Largo Caballero.[1] These were integrated in the Army Corps (Spanish: Cuerpos del Ejército) of the Army.[2]

The divisions were formed with an average of three mixed brigades (Spanish: Brigadas Mixtas) each. All of these divisions and the mixed brigades that integrated them were disbanded after the defeat of the Spanish Republican Armed Forces at the end of the Civil War and the annihilation of the Spanish Republican state by the Francoist regime.[3]
