Oriamendi
(English: March of Oriamendi), is the anthem of the Carlist movement. The name of the anthem stems from the battle of Oriamendi which took place in 1837 during the First Carlist War. History It was composed by José Juan Santesteban to celebrate the Liberal victory. When the Carlists eventually won, they appropriated the melody. The original lyrics were in Basque. The lyrics in Spanish were written in 1908 by Ignacio Baleztena Ascárate as ("Jamesist March"). Over the years, several versions of "Oriamendi" have been in use. From 1936 to 1939, the line in the fourth verse, , was replaced by (''the red berets shall conquer Madrid''): means the , or Carlist soldiers. The red berets are part of the Carlist uniform. The Decree 226/1937 of the Burgos Junta recognizes as Oriamendi and the anthems of Falange Española () and the Spanish Legion () ordering that they should be listened to standing in homage to the Fatherland and the fallen. A decree from 1942 reinstates the son ...

Battle Of Oriamendi
The Battle of Oriamendi (Basque: ''Oriamendiko Gudua'') was a battle fought on 16 March 1837 during the First Carlist War. The battle was an overwhelming victory for the Carlists. Prelude The battle was part of a campaign in spring 1837 when the liberal Army tried to chase the Carlists from the Basque Country. General Pedro Sarsfield, marching from Pamplona, was supposed to threaten the Lecumferri pass, while General Espartero was to advance from Bilbao with the purpose of distracting the Carlists. It was planned that the British-Spanish force, starting at San Sebastián, led by George de Lacy Evans would attack the Carlist-held Hernani. This concentric attack was planned by General Sarsfiel with the goal of annihilating Carlist forces. On 15 March the British Auxiliary Legion conquered a fortification known as Oriamendi on a strategic hill near San Sebastián. The hill was defended by Carlist Guipuzcoans. Battle The next day the Carlists under Sebastian de Borbón ...

Cantos Nacionales
''Cantos nacionales'' ("national songs" or "Nationalist songs" were three songs of the Spanish Civil War recognized by Francoist Spain as honoring their fallen. The Decree 226/1937 of the Burgos Junta declared the '' Marcha Granadera'' as the Spanish anthem. It also recognizes as ''cantos nacionales'' the anthems of Falange Española (''Cara al Sol''), Carlism (''Oriamendi'') and the Spanish Legion ('' Novio de la muerte'') ordering that they should be listened to standing in homage to the Fatherland and the fallen. A decree from 1942 reinstates the songs and orders that, in official events, the playing of the anthem and the songs must be saluted with a "national salute" ( Roman salute), or a military salute A salute is usually a formal hand gesture or other action used to display respect in military situations.

First Carlist War
The First Carlist War was a civil war in Spain from 1833 to 1840, the first of three Carlist Wars. It was fought between two factions over the succession to the throne and the nature of the Spanish monarchy: the conservative and devolutionist supporters of the late king's brother, Carlos de Borbón (or ''Carlos V''), became known as Carlists (''carlistas''), while the progressive and centralist supporters of the regent, Maria Christina, acting for Isabella II of Spain, were called Liberals (''liberales''), ''cristinos'' or ''isabelinos''. It is considered by some authors the largest and most deadly civil war of the period. The Carlist forces were split in three geographically distinct armies: ('North'), and ('Catalonia'), which by and large operated independently from each other. Aside from being a war of succession about the question who the rightful successor to king Ferdinand VII of Spain was, the Carlists’ goal was the return to a traditional monarchy, while the ...

Cara Al Sol
(English: Facing the Sun) is the anthem of the Falange Española de las JONS. The lyrics were written in December 1935 and are usually credited to the leader of the Falange, José Antonio Primo de Rivera. The music was composed by Juan Tellería and Juan R. Buendia. The circumstances of its creation are unusual. The Falangists needed a stirring song of their own to counter the popular appeal of '' El Himno de Riego'' (the official anthem of the Second Spanish Republic) and ''A las Barricadas'' (a very popular Anarchist song). To solve the problem, Primo de Rivera formed a committee meeting on 2 December 1935 in the home of Marichu de la Mora Maura. Those present included José María Alfaro, Rafael Sánchez Mazas, Agustín de Foxá, Pedro Mourlane Michelena, Dionisio Ridruejo, Agustín Aznar, and Luis Aguilar. The result of their efforts, following a period of sub-committee review (at the ''Cueva del Orkompon'', a Basque bar in Calle Miguel Moya, Madrid) was provisionally en ...

Roman Salute
The Roman salute, alternatively called the Fascist salute, is a gesture in which the right arm is fully extended, facing forward, with palm down and fingers touching. In some versions, the arm is raised upward at an angle; in others, it is held out parallel to the ground. In contemporary times, the former is commonly considered a symbol of fascism that had been based on a custom popularly attributed to ancient Rome.Winkler (2009), p. 2 However, no Roman text gives this description, and the Roman works of art that display salutational gestures bear little resemblance to the modern Roman salute. Beginning with Jacques-Louis David's painting ''The Oath of the Horatii'' (1784), an association of the gesture with Roman republican and imperial culture emerged. The gesture and its identification with Roman culture were further developed in other neoclassic artworks. In the United States, a similar salute for the Pledge of Allegiance known as the Bellamy salute was created by Franc ...

Military Salute
A salute is usually a formal hand gesture or other action used to display respect in military situations. Salutes are primarily associated with the military and law enforcement, but many civilian organizations, such as Girl Guides, Boy Scouts and the Salvation Army use formal salutes. Ordinary civilians also salute informally to greet or acknowledge the presence of another person; such as a tip of the hat or a hand wave to a friend or neighbour. Military salutes Throughout history, military organizations have used many methods to perform salutes. Depending on the situation a salute could be a hand or body gesture, cannon or rifle shots, hoisting of flags, removing headgear, or other means of showing respect or deference. Hand salutes Origins According to historical reconstruction, the ancient Roman military salute (''salutatio militaris'') was analogous to the current military salute. According to some modern military manuals, the modern Western salute originated ...

Por Dios, Por La Patria Y El Rey
Dios, patria y rey was a motto of Carlism. These three words (which can be translated as "God, King and Fatherland"), have been the motto and cornerstone of Carlism throughout its existence. What Carlism understood by these was: * Dios (God): Carlism believes in the Catholic Faith as a cornerstone of Spain, and must be politically active in its defense. * Patria (Fatherland): Carlism is heavily patriotic, Traditionalism sees the Fatherland as the nesting of communities (municipal, regional, Spain) united under one. * Rey (King): The concept of national sovereignty is rejected. Sovereignty is vested on the king, both legitimate in blood and in deeds, from the Carlist branch of the House of Bourbon. But this power is limited by the doctrine of the Church and the Laws and Usages of the Kingdom, and through a series of Councils, traditional Cortes and state-independent intermediate bodies. The King must also be the Defender of the Poor and Keeper of Justice. Not infrequently the mo ...
