		Cada una de las 17 comunidades autónomas elige una asamblea legislativa unicameral, que selecciona a un presidente entre sus propios miembros.

		La blancura de sus casas recuerda a cualquier pueblo de Andalucía, y rememoran las épocas en que existían aquí escuela y hospital para los más de 1.000 habitantes que tuvo en su época.
		La torre de Alhucemas, resto de la antigua iglesia dedicada a San Agustín y a San Carlos (nombre de los navíos del conde de Montesacro, con los cuales ocupó la isla), y que permite contemplar desde lo alto una hermosa vista de toda la bahía, es lo más llamativo del peñón.
		Las historia trágica y heroica de estos peñones los convierte en verdaderos monumentos nacionales, y tan sólo su aislamiento, tanto físico como informativo, les impide darles a conocer como curiosidades del Mediterráneo, como auténticos restos de la historia de España.

	Mas reservas naturales y menos islotes coloniales
		Las islas Chafarinas son un antiguo refugio de piratas cercano a la frontera argelina y lo forman tres islas: Isabel II, Congreso y Rey.
		Desde un punto de vista biológico, las islas Chafarinas son uno de los últimos lugares del mediterráneo que se pueden considerar paraísos naturales; por sus ricas y limpias aguas, por las numerosas colonias de aves marinas, por su vegetacion y por ser uno de los últimos refugios de la ya casi extinta foca monje.
		Esto supone un continuo desplazamiento de helicópteros y barcos de la armada para reemplazo de tropas y abastecimiento, con todo lo que supone en cuanto a gasto económico que a buen seguro, es cinco veces más que lo que se destina para el estudio y conservación de su fauna y flora.

	Castile-La Mancha Information
		Castile-La Mancha was formerly grouped with the province of Madrid into New Castile ("Castilla la Nueva"), but with the advent of the modern Spanish system of semi-autonomous regions (las autonomías), it was separated due to great economic disparity between the capital and the remaining New-Castilian provinces.
		Although La Mancha is a windswept, battered plateau (manxa means parched earth in Arabic; hence La Mancha is not definitively related to the Spanish word mancha, or stain, which is derived from Latin macula) it remains a symbol of the Spanish culture with its sunflowers, windmills, Manchego cheese and, of course, El Quijote.
		Going as far back as the Muslim domination of the Iberian peninsula, La Mancha was the center of many battles between Christian and Muslim forces.
