    I guess when we say Spain we could also say?:

    Basque country
    Cataluna (matter of time before its independent?)
    Spain

    No!

    Nor should anyone be counting any of the Balearics or Canary Islands separately either. they're all part of Spain!

    "Officially" yes! But from my last visit it would appear that the independence people in Cataluna are now in the majority? (catalan parliament voted 85-47 for right to self determination) I don't know what the current figures are for that in the Basque country?

    I can understand people from those areas too, I lived all over Spain and the Madrid governments system, laws, policing can be draconian to say the least. A very backward legal system and their policing is nothing short of facist at times. And as for the "Embargo" law? Get a grip! (well they do) Crime is out of control too. Is there a country in Europe that challenges Spain for street crime? Spain along with some other Euro nations has an extreme ratio for haves / have nots.

    I don't believe there is any sway towards independence in the Baleirics or the Canaries. Spain is a very divided country though. Even more so then our own island! That said I have had good times there in the past in all the regions and made many friends.

    Anyway back to the travelling!
