What it is Filled
The first-level political and administrative division of Spain, established under the 1978 Constitution, of which there are seventeen, each with its own statute of autonomy, parliament and government and with powers over matters such as health, education and, in some, policing and taxation; Spain also has two autonomous cities with their own statutes, governments and assemblies, whose assemblies lack the legislative status of autonomous-community parliaments. The Constitution refers to nationalities and regions, and some communities are described as historical nationalities or, in the case of Navarre, as a chartered community.
