Olivenza is a Portuguese territory illegaly occupied by Spain.
Olivenza is situated in the Alto Alentejo (a province in the south of Portugal), on the left bank of the River Guadiana, almost in front of Elvas city, about 24 Km south of Badajoz.
Trusting that Olivenza might be restituted, the Portuguese diplomacy attempted to cancel the treaty of alliance between Portugal and England of 1810, whereby Portugal gave Bissau and Cacheu to Great-Britain, for a period of 50 years, in exchange for British support to the restitution of Olivenza.

 Olivença irredentists (Portugal)
The coat of arms used by irredentist groups is slightly different from the official coat of arms of the town (see Olivenza).
It seems to be white instead of red (but I’m not 100% sure of this) and the olive tree is standing in front of the castle, not inside of it.
The irredentist oliventin association’s flag differs from the the spanish official Olivenza flag, as proposed by a portuguese heraldry institution, in a number of points:

 Town of Olivenza (Extremadura, Spain)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-11)
Although the annexation is still unrecognized (a matter brought every now and then in diplomatic circles), the question is far from being a major problem between both countries, and has even an anecdotical flavour among Portuguese public opinion.
It is weird that this proposal is gyronny and bears a mural crown of 5 towers (distinction of municipalities in Portugal with city status), as the usual status attributed to Olivenza is that of town.
The Spanish Royal Academy of History took the design proposed by the I.P.H., but omitted the scroll and instead of a mural crown used a closed royal one.
