Ideology Historians, geographers and ethnologists recognize the existence of a Galician ethnic group, forming a singular unit in a specific territory. However, this is a wide conceptualization that in political terms allows many possible variants. Inside Galician nationalism two main ideological currents can be found: * Autonomist: claims for an extended autonomy of Galicia, further devolution and (in occasions) the transformation of Spain into a federal state where Galicia would eventually achieve self-determination. * Pro-independence: campaigns for immediate and total independence from Spain and northern territories from Portugal (''Gallaecia'').

("Unredeemed Galicia") or ("Outer" or "External Galicia"), also spelled as and and also known as or ("Eastern Strip"), is a term used for all Galician-speaking territories located outside of Galicia.
