Spain

Spain, officially the Kingdom of Spain (Spanish: Reino de España,
unofficially in Catalan: Regne d'Espanya; Basque: Espainiako Erresuma;
Galician: Reino de España; Asturian: Reinu d'España; Occitan:
Regne d'Espanha), is a European constitutional monarchy. It is the
largest of the three sovereign nations that make up the Iberian
Peninsula—the others are Portugal and Andorra—located in
Southern Europe. To the west and to the south of Galicia,
Spain borders Portugal. To the south, it borders Gibraltar and,
through its cities in North Africa (Ceuta and Melilla), Morocco.
To the northeast, along the Pyrenees mountain range, it borders
France and the tiny principality of Andorra. It also includes the
Balearic Islands in the Mediterranean Sea, the Canary Islands in
the Atlantic Ocean and a number of uninhabited islands on the
Mediterranean side of the strait of Gibraltar, known as Plazas de
soberanía, such as the Chafarine islands, the isle of Alborán, the
"rocks" (peñones) of Vélez and Alhucemas, and the tiny Isla Perejil.
In the northeast along the Pyrenees, a small exclave town called Llívia
Catalonia is surrounded by French territory.

The name Spain comes from the Latin name Hispania, an evolution of
the Phoenician name i-shaphan-im "island of the rock hyrax", possibly
referring to rabbits (cf. Heb shephardhi "Spanish").
