I am visiting Spain this year, in particular Northern Spain. Thank you very much for putting in the time and effort into making this video. Cheers from McAllen Texas!
Very good video. I enjoy hearing the history of any country. It is an important part of knowing the country and it's people. Thank you
Personally, I very much appreciate the historical perspective because if I move somewhere I want to get a feel for the character of the people and the geography.
Hello from Canada 🇨🇦, I can not wait to visit Bilbao 😊
Many thank’s for this great video 🙌
Basque Country or Euskal Herria has 7 provinces, 4 under Spain and 3 under France. The 4 provinces under Spain has been divided in two different Autonomies and the three provinces under France are joined with other one.
We visites the city a couple of weeks ago. Its a very nice city trip destination.
I am moving to Bilbao in 2 weeks for a few months and this video is what I needed :) I have been there only for 1 day last year but I was very intrigued by the place. Thanks it is a super nice and well executed video
The capital of the Basque County is Vitoria- Gasteiz, NOT Bilbao. Other than that, great video.
The capital of the basque country is Iruña/Pamplona.
no it’s not lol
The capital of the Basque Autonomous community is Vitoria-Gasteiz, but the true capital the one is foreseen on the Spanish charter is Iruña-Pamplona
Ez horregattik 😈😂❤️
Thank you. From Florida
I loooved the food in Victor Montes!
It's the best!
Bilbao is not the capital of the Basque Country. However, it is the biggest city in the said region / community. Vitoria is the "de facto" capital city of The Basque Country.
The Basque Country comprises of 3 provinces which are: Bizkaia (Capital City: Bilbao), Alava (Capital City Vitoria) and Gipuzkoa (Capital city: Donostia / San Sebastian).
What about Rekalde and Irala???
Bro! Thanks a million for such an informative, comprehensive and objective review of the city! Really really helped me out, since I am planning to do an exchange semester there! Seems like a cool place!
Some would say Gernika is the capital.
Hi, i am part Spanish (Asturias) and i have been thinking of visiting to research whether or not i can afford to mive there. The costs of living must be very high?
I found that groceries, eating out etc. are quite similar to Asturias. Rent, however, is much higher and it takes some time to come across a good deal. Higher wages compensate for that though, so you can give it a go and see how you like it! Good luck!
@@davidnikolov_ I hope so. I loved your video on Scotland.
Hello! It's not the cheapest in Spain, nor is it the most expensive. At least not as expensive as living in Madrid or Barcelona. You also have a wide range of hotels, hostels and tourist accommodations and you can get a set menu of the day from 12 to 20 € which includes a starter, main course, dessert, bread and drink.
Visit us whenever you want, everybody's welcome!
@@oskarobitHow hard would it be to find an apartment in Bilbao, as a remote worker with non-Spanish income?
@@danirabinowitz5049 I suppose you must do a search for the legal aspects of living outside your country while working for a company, or as a freelance, in your country. The regular facts that I know is that you can just stay for a limited period of time, let's say, as a tourists. But the terms for renting are out of my knowledge. When I was working outside my city, and sometimes travelling through Spain, householders can ask you for a "trabajo fijo" (a stable job) and one or two "nominas" (the monthly sheet with your salary). But this things can be considered ilegal today for the actual Laws about Privacy and Data Protection. I think the usual is to pay one month in advance and a deposit of one or two more monthly payments.
Also, the prices in cities like Madrid are absurdly high: for the price of a room in a shared flat you can pay a small apartment for your own in other smaller cities.
Warning: Smaller cities doesn't mean bad, old or without the basic services. Cities in the north like Bilbao or Vitoria are at just 5 hour in high velocity train or driving to Madrid. Public transport is very good at least joining big and regular cities.
take a look at this web, Idealista: www.idealista.com/alquiler-viviendas/bilbao-vizcaya/con-pisos/
... und sehr wichtig, die Leute aus Bilbao werden dort geboren, wo sie wollen.
👍🫂👏📼😃🎦🤜🤛from BILBAO,agur.
El País Vasco no está EN el Norte de España sino Al Norte de España y no sólo son tres territorios históricos (Álava, Bizkaia, Gipuzkoa) sino también Navarra e Iparralde.
en ingles decimios in northern spain, el chico tiene razon
@@juliangreen9266 "en el norte de España" es más correcto según las reglas del español, porque decir "al norte de" puede interpretarse como estar más lejos del norte mencionado. Puedes leer la otra respuesta con un enlace de la RAE sobre esta forma.
🤓☝
4:30 Bilbao more expensive than Madrid or Barcelona? LMAO 🤣🤣
Not true at all as I've been there & if you know from where to buy in Bilbao it's way cheaper than most cities in Europe
What about San Sebastian? What's best neighborhood to stay in Balboa? Thanks in advance
Los vascos derrotaron a los romanos, árabes, a Carlomagno pero no han derrotado a los Españoles.😂😂❤ viva los vascos!
Efectívamente los vascos derrotaron en 788 a Carlomagno en los altos de Ibaineta y Lepoeder. No derrotaron a los árabes porque no eran enemigos. De hecho, en la ribera nabarra se hicieron fuertes los Banu-Qasim; vascones autóctonos convertidos al islam y emparentados a su vez con los Aritza. Tampoco derrotaron a los romanos porque la convivencia se basó en la colaboración puntual; ya que los romanos no tenían demasiado interés en la zona. Pero sí que ganaron una batalla contra los romanos en una alianza entre dos tribus vascas: los vascones y los aquitanos. Y el fuerte donde perdieron los romanos se puede visitar en los Pirineos.
Además de eso, los vascos sí que derrotaron a los Castellanos en varias ocasiones:
-Una vez en 1175: Para frenar las continuas incursiones castellanas en Bizkaia, el rey de Nabarra fundó la villa de Portugalete, que junto a la villa de Barakaldo al otro lado de la ría (localidad vizcaina también fundada por un monarca nabarro), servirían para poblar las riveras del Ibaizabal hasta la costa. También se construyó un torreon defensivo en Gaztelugatxe, donde hoy hay una ermita. Como Nabarra no pudo frenar las incursiones castellanas, el general Sancho Galdakano atacó a las tropas castellanas desde los montes de Ganguren, y estas tubieron que refugiarse en el castillo de Balmasin. (Si entras a Bilbao desde San Sebastián pasarás por un largo tunel que atraviesa una montaña y encima de esa montaña están las ruinas del castillo). Ese mismo año un laudo albitral emitido desde Londres obligaba a los castellanos a devolver el castillo de Balmasin a Nabarra.
-Otra vez en el año 1099: Castilla intenta invadir Nabarra y comienza entrando por Araba. Los castellanos son derrotados y se ven obligados a firmar un tratado de paz: Castilla devolvería a Nabarra el valle de Arga y la población de Larraga, y a cambio Nabarra cedería Trebiño a Castilla y Castilla. (Por eso hoy Trebiño es parte de Burgos)
La única batalla que Nabarra perdió contra Castilla fue en 1512. Cuando Castilla definitivamente consigue conquistar Pamplona. Aunque el reino de Nabarra seguía teniendo territorios soberanos: Lapurdi, Zuberoa, y la parte norte de la propia Nabarra que se adentraba en los Pirineos; que hoy se conoce como Baja Nabarra. Y desde la localidad de Maule en la Baja Nabarra, fue desde donde se inició un intento de reconquista en 1520 que fracasó en 1522 en el Castillo de Amaiur, en la localidad nabarra de Maia. La corte siguió siendo soberana en esos tres territorios que hoy se conocen como Iparralde (la zona norte) y la corte nabarra incluso se estableció durante un tiempo en Burdeos gracias a las buenas relaciones con Francia. En la revolución francesa al final cayó la corte nabarra y con ello los territorios de Lapurdi y Zuberoa fueron engullidos por la república.
Clase de historia gratuíta.
Bilbao los Cristianos ellos mismo mataron mulsumanes la batalla la Navas de Tolosa en toda españa
