Background
----------
After the German victory over France Hitler tried to involve Spain 
in the War. His main reason was the necessity of taking Gibraltar 
which was a key position in the Mediterranean Sea Control. 

In this way and before the historical Hendaya meeting (23 october 1940) 
Hitler felt betrayed by Franco who didnt want to enter in the war after 
the recent Spanish Civil War. He decided to invade Spain with Italian 
help in order to take Gibraltar and thereby cause major problems for 
England. 

England decided (in this hypothetical plot) that the Spainish invasion 
diminished the risk of a German invasion of England so decided to help
Spain as and also to maintain the control of the Mediterranean.
