Generalisimo Francisco Franco (1892-1975) was the former dictator of Spain from 1937 until his death. He came to power during the Spanish Civil War and was a close ally of Mussolini.
Franco was something of a film aficionado, and wrote the screenplay for Raza. Given the penchant of the Spanish film industry for making movies about the Civil War, he's also appeared as a character in a few others, like Madregilda, Espérame en el Cielo (where the protagonist is his body double) or Dragon Rapide.
Oh, and just in case you were wondering, Generalisimo Francisco Franco is still dead.
