which side was spain on during the first world war?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Spain remained neutral throughout World War I between 28 July 1914 – 11 November 1918. Despite domestic economic difficulties, it was considered one of the most important neutral countries in Europe by 1915.

DURING SECOND WORLD WAR The Spanish State under General Franco was officially non-belligerent during World War II. This status, although not recognised by international law, was intended to express the regime's sympathy and material support for the Axis Powers, to which Spain offered considerable material, economic, and military assistance. Despite this ideological sympathy, Spain did not enter the war as a belligerent and, in fact, frustrated German designs on Gibraltar and stationed field armies at the Pyrenees to dissuade Germany from occupying the Iberian Peninsula. This apparent contradiction can be explained by Franco's pragmatism and his determination to act principally in Spanish interests, in the face of Allied economic pressure, Axis military demands, and Spain's geographic isolation.
