Résumé
Along with Catalonia and the Basque Country, Galicia is one of the "historic nationalities" acknowledged by the Spanish Constitution of 1978; features such as an own language, an own culture and their political claim for differentiation describe its particular identity and are, as well, the starting point for the mentioned constitutional consideration. The centre-periphery conflicts have been constant throughout the history and became even worse both after the establishment of constitutionalism in the early 19th century and due to the exigency of Spanish nationalism during General Franco's dictatorship.
