I'm not sure if it's a good idea to have separate nations rulesets for
what's the same country, with a different government. Should there be,
say, a French kingdom ruleset, a French Empire ruleset, a French Fifth
Republic (to say nothing of the previous four)? Also, it kinda looks
odd to have a Spanish Republic *kingdom*.

That said, Manuel Azaña *should* be added to the leader list in the
spanish.ruleset file.
