Why do some Catalonians want to separate?


The short version, they are better off economically and think the rest of the country is a bane on them.

At least this is how I heard it when I was over there a few months ago.

True. That region is affluent and urban for the most part. Southern spain is less affluent and the catalonians dont want to have to support the rest of the country. Also, they have never really considered themselves spaniards. Whatever, barcelona is an unique upbeat progressive city. Great city to visit.
