Spain [spe?n] (Spanish , Spanish pronunciation [es'pa?a]) or the Kingdom of Spain (Spanish Reino de España), is a country located mostly in southwestern Europe on the Iberian Peninsula.[note 6]

The Spanish mainland is bordered to the south and east by the Mediterranean Sea except for a small land boundary with Gibraltar; to the north by France, Andorra, and the Bay of Biscay; and to the west by the Atlantic Ocean and Portugal. Spanish territory also includes the Balearic Islands in the Mediterranean, the Canary Islands in the Atlantic Ocean off the African coast, and two autonomous cities in North Africa, Ceuta and Melilla, that border Morocco. With an area of 504,030&_160;km², Spain is the second largest country in Western Europe after France.

After serving as a granary of the Roman Empire, much of Spain was later conquered by a Muslim people, the Moors. Christian kingdoms gradually rolled back Muslim rule, completing this Reconquista in 1492. Spain became the leading world power, with a global empire on a scale and world distribution that had never been approached by its predecessors and a legacy today of over 400 million Spanish-speakers worldwide.

At 194,884 mi² (504,782&_160;km²), Spain is the world's 51st-largest country. It is some 47,000&_160;km² smaller than France and 81,000&_160;km² larger than the U.S. state of California.

Even then, Spain insisted that the Keys were not a part of Florida. England contested this, but neither cared as long as one did not interfere with the other's shipping. Cuba was Spain's first real foothold in the New World and was Spain's stepping-stone to the Americas. The Keys... (read more)
