What’s a good and interesting topic to write about Spain.?

Historically, maybe do some research on Franco. Or, further back a bit, research on some of the prominent castles. If you want to do a specific city, look up Toledo, very pretty place, very famous for their swords.

Here are a few ideas that are under-explored and interesting:

Spain’s eighteenth century (The Enlightenment is a big deal in France, but most people don’t know much about the same time in Spain

-the different languages of the country (Castillian isn’t the only one!)

-the current debate about bullfighting in Barcelona

-the symbol of the bull versus the symbol of the donkey (represents Catalunya)

-contemporary Spanish music

-the debate about real versus artificiala wine corks (seriously, it’s an important matter since many farmers’ abilities to support themselves are threatened by the trend to use artificial wine-stoppers rather than those made from cork trees

-immigration trends (check out info about the Barrio Lavapies in Madrid, for example)

– origin and characteristics of the Basque language (euskera)

-you might want to glance at a few spanish newspapers (elpais.com, for example) for other ideas about contemporary issues

buena suerte
