Culture, laws and everyday Life in Spain
Spain is a very diverse country, and this is reflected in its culture and organization. Its history has led to a decentralized system, where the regions have their own autonomy, and some of them even have co-official languages such as Catalan, Galician, or Basque, among others.
- After the dictatorship, the 1978 Constitution guaranteed rights such as freedom of expression, free education, and public healthcare.
- Historical memory is an important topic today: there are laws that recognize the victims of the Civil War and the dictatorship.
- In daily life, you will see great cultural richness: local festivals, different types of music, varied gastronomy depending on the region, and also strong protection of social and labour rights.
