WikiProject Catalonia

Welcome to WikiProject Catalonia! It is dedicated to improving Wikipedia's coverage of topics related to Catalonia. This Project also covers the region in France which used to be part of Catalonia.

Our aims are:

The project generally considers any article related to Catalonia to be a valid topic.

Catalonia (/ˌkætəˈloʊniə/; Catalan: Catalunya [kətəˈluɲə] ^ⓘ; Occitan: Catalonha [kataˈluɲa]; Spanish: Cataluña [kataˈluɲa] ^ⓘ) is an autonomous community of Spain, designated as a nationality by its Statute of Autonomy. Most of its territory (except the Val d'Aran) is situated on the northeast of the Iberian Peninsula, to the south of the Pyrenees mountain range. Catalonia is administratively divided into four provinces or eight vegueries (regions), which are in turn divided into 42 comarques. The capital and largest city, Barcelona, is the second-most populous municipality in Spain and the fifth-most populous urban area in the European Union.

Modern-day Catalonia comprises most of the medieval and early modern Principality of Catalonia (with the remainder northern area now part of France's Pyrénées-Orientales). It is bordered by France (Occitanie) and Andorra to the north, the Mediterranean Sea to the east, and the Spanish autonomous communities of Aragon to the west and Valencia to the south. In addition to about 580 km of coastline, Catalonia also has major high landforms such as the Pyrenees and the Pre-Pyrenees, the Transversal Range (Serralada Transversal) or the Central Depression. The official languages are Catalan, Spanish and the Aranese dialect of Occitan.
