"Manuel Azaña Díaz (Alcalá de Henares January 10, 1880 ? Montauban November 3, 1940) was the first Prime Minister of the Second Spanish Republic (1931?1933), and later served again as Prime Minister (1936), and then as the second and last President of the Republic (1936?1939). The Spanish Civil War broke out while he was President. With the defeat of the Republic in 1939, he fled to France, resigned his office, and died in exile shortly afterwards."--Wikipedia.
