Two official languages, 100
rainy days and a special cheese, those are only some of the things typical of
Galicia.
Galicia
is a region in the north west of Spain. The name Galicia comes from the Latin
name Gallaecia. Before the roman invasion multiple tribes lived in the area.
During year 800 and 900 Galician greaves had variated power and the coasts did
often get attacked by Normands and Vikings. They build the towers in Catoira to
protect Santiago de Compostela from the attacks. When general Fransisco Franco
died Galicia became a democracy again.
