Autonomous Communities

The largest administrative division in Spain

is the Autonomous Community.

There are seventeen Autonomous

Communities. Fifteen are on the Iberian

Peninsula. The other two are the

archipelagos of the Balearic Islands and the

Canary Islands. Spain has two Autonomous

Cities on the coast of North Africa. Ceuta

and Melilla.

Each Autonomous Community has its own

history and traditions. They all have their

own capital city and government.
