Basque Country

	Euskara: Euskal Herria

Español	Euskal Herria Euskal Herria (literalmente significa "país del euskera") es una denominación originalmente sólo lingüística, documentada desde el siglo XVI. Abarca siete territorios históricos: Alta Navarra, Álava, Guipúzcoa, Vizcaya, Baja Navarra, Labort y Sola. Está aceptado por los investigadores de la cultura vasca como hecho cultural de forma amplia, y por los nacionalistas vascos como ente posible político, independiente en algunos casos, o en otros, con colaboraciones estables entre los territorios. No es utilizado por los que consideran que no existe ni política ni culturalmente.
Euskara	Euskal Herria Euskal Herria Europako herrialdea da. Historikoki euskaldunen eta euskararen lurraldea da, Pirinio mendien mendebaldean kokatua, Frantzia eta Espainiaren arteko muga egiten duen mendilerroan, eta Bizkaiko golkorantz zabaltzen dena. Euskal Herriak 20.664 km²-ko azalera du, eta gutxi gorabehera 3.007.661 bizilagun.
English	Basque Country - The Basque Country as a cultural entity (not to be confused with the homonym autonomous community of the Basque Country) is a region in the western Pyrenees that spans the border between France and Spain, on the Atlantic coast. It comprises the Basque Autonomous Community and Navarre in Spain and the Northern Basque Country in France. It has not political entity. It roughly corresponds with the homeland of the Basque language and Basque traditions. As such, it is a concept mostly used within Basque nationalism.

Notes and references

General remarks:

The WIKIMEDIA COMMONS Atlas of the World is an organized and commented collection of geographical, political and historical maps available at Wikimedia Commons. The main page is therefore the portal to maps and cartography on Wikimedia. That page contains links to entries by country, continent and by topic as well as general notes and references.
Every entry has an introduction section in English. If other languages are native and/or official in an entity, introductions in other languages are added in separate sections. The text of the introduction(s) is based on the content of the Wikipedia encyclopedia. For sources of the introduction see therefore the Wikipedia entries linked to. The same goes for the texts in the history sections.
Historical maps are included in the continent, country and dependency entries.
For Burma, see Myanmar; Great Britain and Northern Ireland, see United Kingdom; Ivory Coast, see Côte d'Ivoire; Pridnestrovie, see Transnistria; Taiwan, see China, Republic of; Timor-Leste, see East Timor.
The status of various entities is disputed. See the content for the entities concerned.
The maps of former countries that are more or less continued by a present-day country or had a territory included in only one or two countries are included in the atlas of the present-day country. For example the Ottoman Empire can be found in the Atlas of Turkey.
