Province of Badajoz, Spanish province in western Extremadura, Spain.
The Guadiana River flows through this 21,766 square kilometer territory, creating fertile plains between mountains in the south and northeast sections.
The province gained its current administrative structure in 1833, evolving from territories that witnessed Roman settlements, Moorish kingdoms, and medieval Christian reconquest.
The province preserves numerous castles, Arab citadels, and Roman structures, with the archaeological site of Mérida designated as a UNESCO World Heritage location.
The regional capital Badajoz connects to Portugal through multiple border crossings, making it a principal transportation hub for western Spain.
The Barros Plain contains the largest agricultural zone in Extremadura, producing cereals, wine, and oil with Almendralejo as its central processing point.
