Hello, mary
Perhaps I can help you out, I'll try at least.

There is no use explaining unreal past in detail now. Firstly, I recommend you glancing at the following address: http://www.englishpage.com/conditional/pastconditional.html#pastunreal , then if you had any doubts on that, post and I am sure someone will give you more precise information.

Despite (that's the word you probably wanted to use) and is spite of have the same meaning. Definition: Used before one fact that makes other fact surprising. See examples:
- I must say to have enjoyed my vacation despite weather.
- [Despite, in spite of] having won three games in row, they're still far from the top.

Although is a subordinating conjunction which means either 'despite of the fact that' or 'but'.
-She went to the party, although her mother didn't consent to it.
-I will come for sure, although I may be a little bit late.

I hope that helps.
