Baleares (Comunidad Autónoma)

"Las Islas Baleares (en catalán y oficialmente: Illes Balears) son una comunidad autónoma uniprovincial española, compuesta por las islas del archipiélago balear. Se encuentran situadas en el mar Mediterráneo, frente a la costa oriental de la península ibérica. Su capital es Palma de Mallorca. El archipiélago está formado por dos grupos de islas y numerosos islotes: las Gimnesias (Mallorca, Menorca, Cabrera y algunos islotes cercanos como Dragonera, Conejera o la Isla del Aire) y las islas Pitiusas (Ibiza en catalán y oficialmente Eivissa y Formentera, junto con los distintos islotes que las rodean, como Espalmador y Espardell)."

"The Balearic Islands (/bæliærk alndz/; Catalan: Illes Balears, pronounced: [iz blas]; Spanish: Islas Baleares, pronounced: [izlaz aleaes]) are an archipelago of Spain in the western Mediterranean Sea, near the eastern coast of the Iberian Peninsula. The four largest islands are Majorca, Minorca, Ibiza and Formentera. There are many minor islands and islets close to the larger islands, including Cabrera, Dragonera and S'Espalmador. The islands have a Mediterranean climate, and the four major islands are all popular tourist destinations. Ibiza in particular is known as an international party destination, attracting many of the world's most popular DJs to its nightclubs. The islands' culture and cuisine are similar to that of the rest of Spain. The archipelago forms an autonomous community and a province of Spain, with Palma de Mallorca as the capital. The 2007 Statute of Autonomy declares the Balearic Islands as one nationality of Spain. The co-official languages in the Balearic Islands are Catalan and Spanish. Though now a part of Spain, throughout history the Balearic Islands have been under the rule of a number of different kingdoms and countries."
