Answer 1

In the first paragraph, instead of 'Cómo lo empezó' you should say 'Cómo empezó' because the first one is saying 'how did you start it' while you're going for 'how did it start'. You also might want to say 'del Crac de 1929' rather than 'del Crac de 29' to clarify whether it's 1829 or 1929 or what.

In the second paragraph, you might say 'las ingleses' instead of 'la inglesia'.

Great job! This looks good!

Answer 2

We have had various lessons about the Civil War including watching the film Tierra y Libertad by Ken Loach. I have also read some books and beautiful poems.

Many foreigners went to Spain to fight in the Civil War. The majority, for ideological reasons, fought for the Republicans. One of them was Eric Blair who later wrote Homage to Catalonia using the name George Orwell.

I think mujerdelgato has misunderstood 'inglesia'. This should be iglesia the Spanish word for church. The Catholic Church supported the Nationalists. Monárquico translates as monarchist in English.

I will leave other corrections to a fluent speaker but there are some typing errors eg quienes republicanos and you need to make adjectives agree like otros.

I said "you might say 'las ingleses' instead of 'la inglesia'." because essyjulius was trying to say that 'the nationalists were helped by the English' not the 'church', at least according to essyjulius' English translation of what they wanted to say. - MujerDelGato, Apr 21, 2016
