Falange Española de las Juntas de Ofensiva Nacional-Sindicalista (Spanish for "Spanish Phalanx of the Councils of the National-Syndicalist Offensive";FE de las JONS for short), or simply called the Falange (About this sound listen ), was a Fascist and National Syndicalist political party founded in Spain by José Antonio Primo de Rivera in 1933. Originally just called the Falange Española ("Spanish Phalanx"), in 1934, the party absorbed the Juntas de Ofensiva Nacional-Sindicalista, being renamed Falange Española de las Juntas de Ofensiva Nacional-Sindicalista after the latter organization's integration into the party. The Falange Española de las JONS ceased to exist as an independent entity when, in 1937 during the Spanish Civil War, General Francisco Franco combined it with the Carlists to form the similarly named Falange Española Tradicionalista y de las Juntas de Ofensiva Nacional Sindicalista (a more conservative than fascist party) which became the sole legal party in Spain until its dissolution in 1977.

In Spain, the Falange was a political organization founded by The 3rd Marqués de Estella in 1933, during the Second Spanish Republic. Estella was the eldest son of General The 2nd Marqués de Estella, who governed Spain as Prime Minister in the 1920s.
