Rulers of Spain
• Although Muslim forces conquered much of the Iberian Peninsula during the eighth century, several Christian enclaves remained, composed of Visigoths and Franks. These groups developed into new kingdoms, and during the tenth century they began a process of re-conquest. As these kingdoms expanded, two came to dominate: Castile and Aragon. The early history of modern Spain is very much in the relationship between these two powers that were united - in theory at least - in 1516.

Tomatina
• La Tomatina is a festival that is held in the Valencian town of Buñol, in which participants throw tomatoes and get involved in this tomato fight purely for fun
• Cone hats were traditionally used to shame and humiliate. Similarly, the whole purpose of the Penitent outfit is for the wearers to shame and humble themselves. That’s why they’re called ‘penitents’. Originally, taking part in the procession was an act of repentance and atonement for your sins, so it just made sense to put on clothes that were ‘shameful’. And the point of covering your face, of course, was to ensure anonymity.

Kissing in Spain
Male and female acquaintances kiss each other, usually on both cheeks. If a lady expects you to kiss her she will offer her cheek. The ‘kiss’ is deposited high up on the cheek, never on the mouth (except between lovers), and isn’t usually really a kiss, but a delicate brushing of the cheeks. Close family and male friends embrace.
