Athletic Club and Basque nationalism are intertwined. As in the case with other groups in Spain, independence and nationalism take root in people's lives. Take, for example, Catalonia. The northeast portion of Spain is an autonomous government. This means that, more or less, they own relative independence from Spain. Granted, the area is still inside the […]
