Instituto Nacional de Colonización

The Instituto Nacional de Colonización y Desarrollo Rural (English: National Institute of Rural Development and Colonization) was the administrative entity that was established by the Spanish State in October 1939, shortly after the end of the Spanish Civil War, in order to repopulate certain areas of Spain. This entity depended from the Ministry of Agriculture and it sought to alleviate the effects of the devastation caused by the three years of civil war.
