Overview

The Basque Country, one of the richest regions in Europe with only two million inhabitants, is considered a small paradise by those who visit it. But behind the mild climate, beautiful landscapes, and high standard of living lies a terrible reality: for thirty years, more than two hundred thousand of its citizens have had to go into exile to save their lives, escape extortion, social isolation, or nationalist impositions.
