Many people regard long afternoon naps and late dinners as perfect aspects of the Spanish way of life. Until the 1940s, Spain was on the same time as Britain and Portugal. In World War II, Spain and Portugal moved the clocks forward to align them with Nazi Germany. The same happened in Portugal.

Options: A: Lifestyle changes in Spain B: Time for Spain to turn back C: Spain's time zone issues D: Spain's work hour regulation
