Its capital, Madrid, is known for its high-end fashion, art museums, and delectable cuisine. Spain is home to 47 million people, who speak Spanish, Catalan, Galician, and Basque. Spain has a long and complex history, with influences from various cultures over the centuries. The country was ruled by the Moors (Muslims from North Africa) for nearly 800 years, which is evident in the architecture of cities such as Granada and Seville. Later, Spain became a world power through its colonization and the discovery of the New World, which brought vast wealth to the country. Today, Spain is known for its famous landmarks such as the Sagrada Familia, Park Guell in Barcelona, the Alhambra in Granada, and the Prado Museum in Madrid. Its passionate people, warm climate, and stunning landscapes make Spain a top destination for tourists from around the world.
