Best Answer

At present, Galicia is not a sovereign country but an Autonomous Territory of Spain. It holds "national status" as recognised by Galician Statute of Autonomy (1981) and the Spanish Constitution (1978).

Galicia as an independent political entity appears in year 411 CE, with the establishment of the Kingdom of Galicia, preceding in many centuries the emergence of Spain.

Internationally, Galicia was recognIsed as an European nation during the 11th Congress of European Nationalities celebrated in Bern (Switzerland) in September 1933. This Congress was an organism under the United Nations.
