 | | As part of the Basque national identity, the Iberian idea of the "limpieza de sangre" ("cleanliness of blood") was adopted by Sabino Arana, founder of the nationalist party PNV, who propagated the idea that Basque people were genetically distinct and even superior to neighbouring people and immigrants, pejoratively referred as "Maketos". |  | | Investigations of Basque blood types have found that there are more Basques with type O blood than in the general European population. |  | | The Socialist Party of the Basque Country is the local branch of PSOE. |

 | | The Basque troops surrendered in the prison of Dueso. |  | | Here important contributions were made by the people with their mobilizations, democratic organizations all over the world and exiled Basque institutions - the Basque Government and key figures in the Basque Nationalist Party: Irujo at international contact level, and Leizaola and Joseba Rezola through their visit to Rome: contacts with the Christian Democrat Government. |  | | The worst thing that can happen to a people is for it not to write its own history as this means such a people is at the mercy of other historians. |

| | THE BASQUE SEPARATIST MOVEMENT |
 | | The Basque Separatist movement began as an idea, and eventually evolved into a movement and the foundation of a political party. |  | | The people were no longer allowed to speak their native language, which until then had been very widespread and inescapable in daily life. |  | | This was the first tangible sign of the hatred Franco felt toward the Basque people, but it was certainly not the last. |

 | | Historical maps of the Kingdom of Pamplona and it's successor, the Kingdom of Navarre, which were the unified political instantiations of an independent Basque Country in the Middle Ages, before its dismemberment: click here. |  | | Being a small people between two powerful states (Castile-Spain and France), different areas joined politically with whoever it felt it was appropriate to do so. |  | | Others would say it's an ethnic group with very old roots, some of which are Spanish citizens (some would even say Spaniards), and some of which are French citizens (some would even say French). |

 | | Attention, this project does not have the role to make come imperatively the 15 million Basque in the world, so already we remain however lucid can touch 0,5%, that of it represents already 75 000 people, therefore it is not the quantity which counts but well the quality of the service and his perenity. |  | | But the basque country will be independent some day,because we are a nation as yours. |  | | Project present, is something with what I think since several years, because it me has always appeared of obviousness limpid, and that in fact I thought that such a project or service existed already, I were mistaken. |

 | | However, there is a big difference between the arguments of France and Spain against allowing a homeland for the Basque, and Israel's arguments against allowing a "homeland" for the "Palestinians": the Basque people really do have a history, a language, and a culture that is significantly different from all other nations in Europe. |  | | * Send foreign correspondents into the Basque lands to speak with them about how they have been treated by France and Spain, about their political and economic plight, and about how deserving they are of an independent Basque nation. |  | | The "Palestinians" have no such differentiation from other peoples in the Middle East. |

 | | However, the Basque people have now been granted more freedom, such as the right to speak Euskara (the Basque language), the right to educate in Euskara, and the right to teach about the Basque culture. |  | | However, when the Republicans lost to the Nationalists, and Franco took over Spain, it looked as if the Basque people would forever remain under the rule of Spanish government. |  | | This site is an attempt to have a comprehensive exlporation of the Basque people, who they are, what they believe in, their role in the Spanish Civil War, and their fight for independence. |

 | | Demonstrators shouted "Amnesty for the prisoners," apparently referring to members of the banned Basque separatist party Batasuna held in custody pending trial for involvement in violence during a general strike last month. |  | | The three are accused of involvement in acts of violence, including attempted attacks by ETA, during a Batasuna-backed general strike in the Basque Country on March 9. |  | | "The Basque people are entering on an unstoppable road to sovereignty," Errazti told journalists before the start of the march. |

 | | (See "Caucasian Iberia".) One of the few practical consequences is that the former mayor of Bilbao José María Gorordo made the city and the Georgian capital Tbilisi twin cities, and Euskal Telebista (Basque Television) co-produced a version of Don Quixote with the Georgian Television. |  | | Basque (in Basque: Euskara) is the language spoken by the Basque people who inhabit the Pyrenees in North-Central Spain and the adjoining region of South-Western France. |  | | Basque has no official standing in the Northern Basque Country of France and French citizens are barred from officially using Basque in a French court of law. |

 | | That theory is supported by the discovery of some Basque-type skulls in Neolithic sites, which ruled out the thesis of immigration from other areas. |  | | There are 520,000 Basque speaking people in the Basque provinces in Spain, that is 25% of their total population. |  | | Today Basque schools are in the process of becoming part of the Basque state school, but in the French Basque Country, and some parts of Navarre, Basque schools are the only ones which provide teaching in Basque. |

 | | For some people gastronomical societies are the best example of good eating habits; they are traditional meeting places, whose members compete to make delicious dishes for the others. |  | | That is why it revolts people who see it for the first time. |  | | The many good restaurants and gastronomical societies founded in the Basque Country are a testimony to the enjoyment Basque people get from good food, and their fondness for cultivating the traditions of good cooking. |
