Ruralism

Original independence
• Idea of Arana that Biscay (after the whole Basque land) had originally been a nation.
• In 1839, the First Carlist War ended this independence.
• The myth of the original independence was very used in other national histories.
• The goal: unite the community into a homogeneous unit.
