According to Javier Jaramillo, founder of the Colombian law firm Pro Corp, one of the processes in which you can apply for nationality in Spain is through the Democratic Memory Law, which requires collecting the necessary documentation that demonstrates a family link with a person born in Spain.
This law is also known as ‘the law of grandchildren’, since its objective is to provide historical reparation for Spaniards who were exiled or fled from their native country due to the social context at times like the Spanish Civil War or those who simply emigrated for political or ideological reasons, according to specialized blogs.
