Naming
Comunitat Valenciana (in Valencian) is the sole official name and the one used in public administration and by most media, in both Spanish and Valencian. It is a neologism adopted after the democratic transition to resolve the conflict between two competing names then in use: "Valencian Country" and "Kingdom of Valencia". "Valencian Community" is the standard English translation of the official name. In Spanish, both Comunitat Valenciana and, less commonly, Comunidad Valenciana are used.
