Constituent Assembly Of Catalan Separatism
The Constituent Assembly of Catalan Separatism was a meeting of the Catalan independence movement that was held in Havana ( Cuba) between September 30 and October 2, 1928 and was chaired by Francesc Macià, the leader of Estat Català, who after the failure of the Prats de Molló plot that sought to overthrow the Dictatorship of Primo de Rivera, which had governed Spain since September 1923, and proclaim the Independent Catalan Republic, had begun a propaganda tour of the "cause of Catalonia" throughout Latin America. The Assembly approved the Provisional Constitution of the Catalan Republic, of which 10,000 copies were published, and founded the Partit Separatista Revolucionari Català.

Estelada Blava
The Estelada (; pl. ''Estelades''; full name ''Senyera estelada'', , from ''estel'', "star") is an unofficial flag typically flown by Catalan independence supporters to express their support for either an independent Catalonia or independent ''Països Catalans'' (Catalan Lands, the territories in which Catalan is traditionally spoken). The design of the ''Estelada'' comprises the red-and-yellow bars of the ''Senyera'', with the addition of a five-pointed star in a triangle at the hoist. The use of this flag as a protest symbol within Catalan nationalism has become more notable since the 1970s Spanish transition to democracy. The self-proclaimed Catalan Republic of 2017 did not adopt the Estelada as its national flag, instead using the regular Senyera. Design and meaning The flag dates from the early 20th century; it was most probably designed in 1918 by Vicenç Albert Ballester i Camps. It came from combining the traditional four red stripes over a yellow field of the '' ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
