How is the Spanish State organised territorially?

✓ En comunidades autónomas

Spain is organised territorially into municipalities, provinces and comunidades autónomas (regions with self-government). The comunidades have autonomy to manage their own interests, with their own parliament and government. It is not organised in cantons, like Switzerland, or in federal states, like the United States or Germany, although the Spanish model is similar to a federal system. Remember: 17 comunidades, 2 autonomous cities and 50 provinces.
