Badante (in Italian, plural BADANTI) is a live-in care worker that takes care of the elderly in Italy, usually in their own homes. In Romanian the term is used as badantă or alticulated as badanta, with plural badante. The Italian state usually pays a contribution to the family of the elderly and the family is responsible with the contracts they sign with the care workers, the hours worked, free time allowances and other duties (cooking, cleaning the house, medication). Sometimes the care workers live only with the elderly they take care of. Other times, in the same house, live also some other relatives of the elderly.
La Violencia was a decade‑long period of civil conflict that erupted after the assassination of Liberal leader Jorge Eliécer Gaitán on 9 April 1948. What followed was largely rural, partisan fighting between Liberal and Conservative supporters, intertwined with state repression and banditry, that left roughly 200,000 dead and displaced hundreds of thousands. The National Front power‑sharing pact (from 1958) helped de‑escalate open conflict, but its social and political legacies were long‑lasting.
Francisco Franco (1892–1975) was a Spanish army general who led the Nationalist forces to victory in the Spanish Civil War (1936–1939) and then ruled Spain as an authoritarian head of state from 1939 until his death. His regime suppressed political opposition, centralized power, banned most parties and independent unions, and imposed wide censorship. After Franco died in November 1975, Spain began a negotiated transition (la Transición) to a parliamentary constitutional monarchy under King Juan Carlos I.

Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
