The Spanish Constitution says in the CHAPTER 3 when it talks about Self-governing Communities, but more precisly in Section 145

“Under no circumstances shall a federation of Self-governing Communities be allowed.”

It means that there are no circumstances to allow two communities to create a federation. If we observe the history in the Spanish State, we can see that not many autonomic communities are interested to create federation of autonomies. I could say that only Catalan and Basc people can be potentially interested (Valencia, Balearic Islands, Catalonia and Catalan-Aragonian area, and Navarra and Basc country respectively). However in the TRANSITIONAL PROVISIONS, in section four says:

In the case of Navarra, and for the purpose of its integration into the General Basque Council or into the autonomous Basque institutions which may replace it, the procedure contemplated by section 143 of this Constitution shall not apply. The initiative shall lie instead with the appropriate historic institution (órgano foral), whose decision must be taken by the majority of its members. The initiative shall further require for its validity the ratification by a referendum expressly held to this end and approval by the majority of votes validly cast. If the initiative does not succeed, it may only be repeated during a further term of office of the competent Foral body and, in any case, after the minimum period laid down in section 143 has elapsed.

So what we observe is that the Spanish Constitution says indirectly that federation between autonomic communities can exist except for the Catalan People. So it means that never in Spain, Catalans can form an unique Spanish community, and we should be split longer. Why Spain attacks continuously to the Catalan integrity? I’ve some ideas…

Since April 25th 2007, The Campaign “Let’s join in a Map for an Own State for the Catalan Countries” has add in a map 12,000 Catalan people.

This is a successful campaign, because the 4 young people are going against Spain a France with a initial cost of the Campaign about 200€. Of course to penetrate more in the society, the Campaign needs more money but also more support of people from the Catalan Countries and of the internationalist persons from everywhere.

There is a counter of the Catalan People who wants the independence of the Catalan Countries in the right side of this blog.. you can check the evolution.
