Hi John, thank you for the in-depth political comatnemry. From what I’ve read, some historians even deny that there ever was a Celtic presence in northwestern Spain (Galicia is also considered part of the Celtic nation). Politics and historians aside, there are obvious cultural idiosyncracies that set each region of Spain apart from another. You can hear them with your own ears, see them with your own eyes and taste them with your own tongue. (I’m referring to food, not men!)I’m no political expert, but I’d like those who deny a Celtic heritage to explain why there are pre-Christian settlements, burial mounds and statues of crosses in northwestern Spain that are archeological evidence of Celtic culture, not to mention the legends, stories and folklore of the region, witches and trolls included.Now as for the Goths and Moors making inroads, sure … but not quite as much as they did south of Castilla-Leon. Yes, you can find some evidence of mosques in the mozarabic and mudejar styles in Zaragoza, for example. But in the the center of Asturias? No way … I’m not a warfare tactics expert, but the peaks of Europe were a natural barrier to any large-scale invasion and colonization of that region.Interestingly, the Romans managed to get there, but the Muslims stayed mostly south, giving southern Spain its characteristic cultural flavor and towns with names like Jerez de la Frontera, which meant “frontier,” or Muslim world ends here, Christians to the north. There’s a reason why you dance flamenco in the Andalucia, chotis in Madrid and jigs in Asturias. Cultural heritage.I agree with you and which is why I emphasize the “soft” history when I refer to my relationship with Spain. My comment about Celtic blood referred more to the folklore rather than the political stage, which as we all know has been rife with blood and war since pre-Christian times. Spain is not really a “country” in reality, even though it is on paper. There is no real “United States of Spain,” even though there’s only one prime minister.The cultural uniqueness of each region should be celebrated and enjoyed, politics aside. I once had dinner with a Basque fella in Madrid and to tell you the truth, while he made for not-so-bad company, I just wanted to tell him to shut the fuck up about his allegedely superior race. Give me a break … and another glass of tinto, please! But I have yet to meet one Spaniard who isn’t passionate and stubborn about his or her own place of origin with the country and his or her own political alliances. On this trip, I saw many a blood pressure rise in arguments about politics.Oh, and my oh my, they know EVERYTHING about the US! Yes, yes they do! Thank God I’m laid-back and thick skinned. I have to agree, the average European is very politically aware, but crap, don’t tell me what it’s like to live in my country, when you don’t live here day to day!
