It seems like the Pyrenean nations based on their Pyrenean Laws and Rights, as well as cultures are rising like baker's yeast all over the isthmus. This is nothing new, after all, that is the way it used to be, during periods of feudalism and well before that, considerable number of small independent countries (known historically as kingdoms, ducats, counties, principalities, etc.),
With the numerous waves of invasions from South to North and from East to West, all those small national entities were constantly eroded and even partially or totally destroyed. But apparently, never died off. Their dormant stage remained there, and now in this new cycle of history are coming back with formidable strength. Catalonia is a clear example of that.

- Andorra is the last independent survivor of the March states, a number of buffer states created by Charlemagne to keep the Muslim Moors from advancing into Christian France. Tradition holds that Charlemagne granted a charter to the Andorran people in return for their fighting the Moors. In the 800s, Charlemagne's grandson, Charles the Bald, made Count of Urgell overlord of Andorra. A descendant of the count later gave the lands to the diocese of Urgell, headed by Bishop of Seu d'Urgell.
In the 11th century, fearing military action by neighboring lords, the bishop placed himself under the protection of the Lord of Caboet, a Spanish nobleman. Later, the Count of Foix, a French noble, became heir to Lord Caboet through marriage, and a dispute arose between the French Count and the Spanish bishop over Andorra.
In 1278, the conflict was resolved by the signing of a pareage, which provided that Andorra's sovereignty be shared between the Count of Foix and the Bishop of Seu d'Urgell of Spain. The pareage, a feudal institution recognizing the principle of equality of rights shared by two rulers, gave the small state its territory and political form.
Over the years, the title was passed between French and Spanish rule until, in the reign of the French King Henry IV, an edict in 1607 established the head of the French state and the Bishop of Urgell as co-princes of Andorra.
Given its relative isolation, Andorra has existed outside the mainstream of European history, with few ties to countries other than France and Spain. In recent times, however, its thriving tourist industry along with developments in transportation and communications have removed the country from its isolation.

BARCELONA JOINS SOVEREIGN FORCES
One of the most important cities of the Pyrenean isthmus and peripheria, Barcelona, has decided to approve democratically, its support for a referendum of independence of Catalonia. It is the final step of a long elaborated process, over four years, of a detailed roadmap to recuperate its sovereignty democratically and peacefully.

NABARRA IN ITS STRUGGLE FOR FREEDOM
No more terrorism in Nabarra, in the Western Pyrenean isthmus......however, the collective trials continue against 28 youngsters of the group called Segi who had supported ETA in the past. Spaniard government continues its autism in solving big, huge internal problems.
The general public and supporters of the group, block the entrance of the courts in Loiola in a pacific protest in favor of those girls and boys. But the Basque government police has arrested and dragged the demonstrators away by the use of violence once more. which makes the political situation to continue in tension between the different ancient countries (in this case, Nabarra) who by force, forms part of Spain. Evidently, the conflict will not go away soon, and most of all, by using these type of methods.
The ancient countries of Europe are awaking from a long period of controlled hibernation, and so are the ones from the Pyrenean isthmus and peripheria, Everything indicates that significant changes will eventually occur in regards to the actual political division in some Western Europe countries.
