Aragon, Autonomous community in northeastern Spain

Aragon spreads across 47,720 square kilometers of land between the Pyrenees mountains and the Ebro River basin, featuring glaciers, valleys, and steppes.

The Kingdom of Aragon emerged in 1035 when Sancho III of Navarre designated the territory to his son Ramiro I, marking the start of regional independence.

The region maintains three linguistic traditions with Spanish as the primary language, while Aragonese and Catalan persist in specific northern and eastern areas.

The high-speed rail network connects the capital Zaragoza with Madrid and Barcelona in less than 90 minutes, serving over 1.3 million regional inhabitants.

The Ordesa y Monte Perdido National Park contains some of Spain's highest waterfalls and deepest canyons within its protected mountain landscape.
