Basque country (Spain)

The Basque Nationalist Party (EAJ-PNV) was founded in 1895 by Sabino de Arana Goiri with a core focus on advocating political independence for the province of Biscay and preserving Basque traditional culture and language. The EAJ-PNV has evolved into a secular humanist democratic party today, it upholds a strong focus on language rights and has been actively involved in cultural and political movements in the Basque country.

In the 2019 Spanish general election, the EAJ-PNV secured approximately 1.57% of the total vote, indicating its presence in national politics. The party is member of the European Democratic Party at the European level, showcasing its international connections. In the European Parliament, it has one seat with MEP Izaskun Bilbao Barandica.
