<p><b>New page</b></p><div>'''Spain''' or '''The Kingdom of Spain''' is a country in southwest Europe comprising the majority of the Iberian Peninsula which it shares with [[Portugal]].

==Spanish naval geography==<br />
Spain has ports on both the [[Atlantic Ocean]] and the [[Mediterranean Sea]]. Notable among the former are [[Corunna]], [[Ferrol]] and further south, [[Cadiz]]. The Mediterranean coast has no large safe havens but [[Port Mahon]] on Minorca was a safe and scure harbour though in British hands during the early part of the Canon.</div>Aquinas
