How Is Spain Governed?
Spain is a parliamentary monarchy with autonomous communities. Regional governments manage many local affairs.
National institutions sit in Madrid, while regions handle education, health, and cultural matters. Understanding autonomy helps explain language diversity and local regulations, such as driving zones or festival schedules. Your concierge or guide can flag regional holidays that affect openings.
