1. How far is the coast of north africa from spain? What effect has this had on both countries?
2. Tell me about several tourist attractions that one should see when visiting Espana?
Answer:
Northa Africa is not a country. The exact mileage can be figured out by going to mapquest.
It is VERY close, and one could almost swim it, except for the threat of sharks. I believe it has been tried.
LOOOOOOOTs of boat people have been illegally entering Spain in current years because of this, and there are two cities that are Spanish but are actually IN Morocco. Still. There were several colonies that belonged to Spain in Northern Africa, but they are now independent, and there has been trade between the two entities since….forever.
Check out the history of the Moors in Spain…they were there BECAUSE of the proximity of Spain to the already conquered area of Morocco.
And, as for what to see…well, maybe just searching “tourism in Spain” would give you that. There is soooooo much!
Answer:
The straight of Gibraltar, from tip to tip is 14 kilometers. However, Gibraltar isn’t Spanish land although its connected. I would recommend Gibraltar, Cadiz, Sevilla, Madrid, Malaga, or Barcelona. I haven't been to Malaga or Barcelona but im told they’re nice. Costa del Sol is supposed to be nice as well.
If you fly into Madrid and need to switch planes… give yourself at least 2-3 hours for a comfortable delay. When we moved here we had 3 hours and were barely on time to the next plane. They’ve separate terminals and the one we landed in was a 20 minute bus ride from the other.
Answer:
Ceuta y Melilla, the two cities in Morocco, were from spain before Morocco even existed, so they can't reclaim them because they've never have them. Also, half of what now is Morocco was from Spain and the other halve from France.
The rest is ok. A lot of immigrants try to get here from Morocco because is very close, but there are some pretty nasty currents that make their boats sink and a lot of people die. It's really sad. Lately they’re coming tho the canary islands though. Poor people.
Answer:
The half of what’s Morocco, was the Western Sahara… but they were GREADY and so Franco gave them their land… to Morocco…
but they was too gready and now they can't control it… it they had waited maybe 5 years… when we gave back all the land then they would now control the whole region…. -_- stupid people
Spain is a BiiG Country… so it depends where you're visiting… if your here in Pamplona you won't fly to the Canary Islands to visit their Water-Park -_-
