Aragon, officially the Aragonese Commonwealth, is a country localized in the eastern part of the Iberian Peninsula in Europe. The nation borders South France to the north, the Mediterranean Sea to the east and south, Castile to the west, and Basque to the northwest. Its territory also includes the Balearic Islands in the Mediterranean Sea.
As most of the Iberian Peninsula, Aragon is a post-Spanish state. Originating from the end of the Third World War, along with Basque, Aragon was a French-controlled zone. Initially divided between three provisional republics (Aragon, Catalonia, and Valencia), the three nations reached an agreement with the Treaty of the Three Nations and establishing the Aragonese Commonwealth, with Aragonese becoming the lingua franca. Similar to the Basque Country, Castile, and Galicia, Aragon held a referendum to a monarchy, with Castile the only nation accepting the Spanish crown and the rest rejecting due to the participation of the Spanish crown in Falangist regime.
