Iberian Peninsula
Iberian Peninsula
The Iberian Peninsula is a geographical region located in the southwest corner of Europe. It is primarily divided between Spain and Portugal, covering most of their territory. It also includes Andorra, a small part of France, and the British overseas territory of Gibraltar.
Geography
The Iberian Peninsula is bordered by the Atlantic Ocean to the west and north, the Mediterranean Sea to the east, and the Strait of Gibraltar to the south, which separates it from North Africa. It is the second largest peninsula in Europe, after the Scandinavian Peninsula, with an area of approximately 582,000 square kilometers.
History
The Iberian Peninsula has been inhabited for at least 1.2 million years as evidenced by the discovery of the earliest known human remains in Europe, found in the Atapuerca Mountains. It has been the focus of numerous invasions and migrations from Africa and Europe, which have shaped its diverse culture and history.
Culture
The Iberian Peninsula is home to a rich and diverse culture, influenced by its historical inhabitants including the Romans, Moors, and Visigoths. This is reflected in its languages, with Spanish, Portuguese, Catalan, Galician, and Basque all spoken in the region. It is also known for its contributions to art, literature, music, and cuisine.
