In the year 1910 there were three political parties in Azkoitia the fundamentalists, nationalists and carlists. There were 10 fundamentalists councilors , 2 carlist councilors and one nationalist. The first Mayor of the town was Juan Joxe Alberdi and he was a fundamentalist. Azkoitia was a really religious town.

Fundamentalists: It is a religious belief based on a literal interpretation of the Bible, born in the North of America in coincidence with the First World War.

Nationalists: Aware of their nation and to build its own state and the best interests of his political doctrine, which proclaims the policy decision-making.

Carlists: An alternative line of Bourbon dynasty, who defended the Spanish throne. It had got a great strength in particular in the Basque Country and Navarre.

100 years ago there were 1 or 2 civil guards (police) these were Spanish.

Nowadays, the Basque people have got the freedom (right) of having their own police.

These days there is a “Ertzaintza” (local Basque police) headquarter in Azkoitia, in the district of San Martin.

But after the spanish civil war there was a “guardia civil” (spanish police) headquarter.
