The Dictator Francisco Franco , Chief Of State of the Spanish State , also held the title Generalísimo de los Ejércitos Españoles, or "Generalissimo of the Spanish Armies", a title which expressed his supreme command of the Army, Navy, and Air Force of the Spanish State . Chiang Kai-shek also used the term (although he was technically a ''general special class'' or "five-star general") as did Joseph Stalin ; the latter, however, was appointed to the position on June 27 1945 , at the conclusion of World War II and did not use it as a title to designate his position of Commander In Chief , but rather bore it as a title of rank, Generalissimo Of The Soviet Union , above the rank of Marshal Of The Soviet Union . The Japan ese title of Shogun is in a way comparable to that of generalissimo. FAMOUS GENERALISSIMOS Austria:
