Euskadi Info

Euskadi

The most widely accepted term in the Basque language for the Basque country. The present comunidad autónoma includes the three Basque provinces of Vizcaya, Guipúzcoa and Álava, but not neighboring Navarra which also has substantial numbers of Basque-speakers and retains many Basque cultural traditions. For this reason the most uncompromising of Basque separatists prefer the term Euskal Herria, which includes Euskadi, Navarra and also the Basque départements of south-west France, known as Iparralde.

comunidad autónoma Info

comunidad autónoma

Spain has long been been a diverse country, made up of different kingdoms and territories with their own languages, political institutions and legal systems. Periods of central control and uniformity, such as the Franco era, nurtured nationalist and separatist feeling in the Basque Country, Catalonia and Galicia. The 1978 Constitution changed Spain into a country consisting of 19 autonomous regions, known as comunidades autónomas or autonomías. These replaced the old regiones. Each of them has its own parliament and government, and its relationship with the central government is governed by an estatuto. Some have more autonomy than others.
The comunidades autónomas are: Andalusia, Aragon, Asturias, the Balearic Islands, the Basque Country , the Canary Islands, Cantabria, Castilla y León, Castilla-La Mancha, Catalonia, Extremadura, Galicia, Madrid, Murcia, Navarre, La Rioja, Valencia and the North African cities of Ceuta and Melilla.
