| Olivenza & Táliga (Olivença & Talega) - Portugal controlled the Olivenza and Táliga regions from 1297, until it ceded them to Spain, under the terms of the 1801 Treaty of Badajoz. Both Portugal and Spain now claim sovereignty over this part of Iberia, but Olivenza and Táliga are both currently administered by Spain as part their autonomous community of Extremadura. This dispute has not caused any major diplomatic problems between the countries, even though they both continue to claim their full sovereignty. |
