Leonese People
The Leonese ( Leonese: ''Llïoneses;'' Spanish: ''Leoneses'') are a Romance people and subgroup of Spaniards, native to León in Spain. The Leonese Kingdom was an independent kingdom in the Middle Ages until 1230 when it was joined to the Kingdom of Castile (from 1296 to 1301 the Kingdom of León was again independent); after the re-union with Castile in 1301 it remained a kingdom until 1833, but as part of a united Spain from 1479. In 1833 it was divided into three provinces. The languages of the Leonese people are Leonese, Galician-Portuguese and Castilian Spanish in Spain.

Leonese Language
Leonese ( ast-leo, Llionés, ast, Lleonés) is a set of vernacular Romance language varieties currently spoken in northern and western portions of the historical region of León in Spain (the modern provinces of León, Zamora, and Salamanca) and a few adjoining areas in Portugal. In this narrow sense, Leonese is distinct from the dialects grouped under the Asturian language. There is no real linguistic division, though; it is only a purely political and identitary division, as dialectal areas (western, central, eastern...) are in fact shaped along a north-south axis (thus encompassing lands both north and south of the mountains, both in Asturias and in Castile and León). In the past, it was spoken in a wider area, including most of the historical region. The current number of Leonese speakers is estimated at 20,000 to 50,000. The westernmost fringes of the provinces of León and Zamora are in the territory of the Galician language, although there is dialectal continu ...

Leonese Cuisine
Leonese cuisine is a sub category of Spanish food that is considered to be very exotic and caloric. Embutidos *''Cecina'' from León is beef. In Leonese, ''cecina'' means "meat that has been salted and dried by means of air, sun or smoke". ''Cecina de León'' is made of the hind legs of beef, salted, smoked and air-dried in the province of León in northwestern Spain, and has protected designation of origin (PGI) status. *''Botillo'': Traditionally made in the western Leonese regions. ''Botiellu'', in Leonese, is a dish of meat-stuffed pork intestine. It is a culinary specialty of El Bierzo, a county in the Spanish province of León and of the Portuguese region of Trás-os-Montes as well. This kind of ''embutido'' is a meat product made from different pieces left over from the butchering of a pig, including the ribs, tail and bones with a little meat left on them. These are chopped, seasoned with salt, pepper, garlic, and other spices, stuffed in the cecum of the pig, and part ...
