The autonomous community (Spanish: Castilla y León) with its capital Valladolid is located in the north-west of Spain. With a land area of 94,218 km², it is slightly larger than neighbouring Portugal. Together with Madrid and Castile-La Mancha, it forms the region of Castile, whose name goes back to the medieval kingdom of the same name. Castile-León is divided into nine provinces. The western part with the provinces of León, Salamanca and Zamora forms the historical landscape of León. The provinces of Ávila, Burgos, Palencia, Segovia, Soria and Valladolid make up the Castile region. Castile-León borders the Spanish regions of Galicia, Asturias, Cantabria and the Basque Country to the north (from west to east).
