What is Catalonia?

The Legend of the four bars of blood is a legend about the origin of the royal Senyera that first appeared in 1551 in the second part of the General Chronicle of Spain, a report published in

Spanish in Valencia by Pere Antoni Beuter. This legend locates the origin of the royal Senyera in the person Guifré el Pilós, and more specifically, the signal that tells the four posts were created after a battle against the Normans, when the king of the Franks dipped

his hand in blood from the wounds Guifré el Pilós, even after going four fingers above the golden shield the Count of Barcelona

said: "these are your weapons count."
