hehe. i didn't have time to read the whole thread, just skimming here before i go into a meeting.
BUT, catalonia was absolutely it's own kingdom prior to the existence of the nation-state known as spain. and it was the most powerful kingdom on the mediterranean seaboard (with catalan being the most widely-spoken language on the mediterranean seaboard) for the duration of the midaeval period.
it's an OLDER bloody history, so people tend to forget about it. but the history of the amalgamation of catalunya and the pais vasco is as bloody, if not more so, than the amalgamation of the british kingdoms.
