  • Destination Region of Murcia
    PRESS Destination Region of Murcia Region of Murcia The Region of Murcia is located in south-east Spain on what is known as the Mediterranean Arc. Set between two seas –the Mediterranean and the Mar Menor– as a region, it has succeeded in combining its extensive cultural heritage with innovation and avant-garde artistic tendencies. Its most important cities are Murcia, the capital, with more than 440,000 inhabitants, Cartagena with more than 214,000 and Lorca with more than 90,000. The Region of Murcia has a population of around one and a half million and covers an area of 11,300km2. Although it is not a very large region, it offers 252km of coast and an astonishing variety of different landscapes considering its size. Diverse and accessible, it only takes a few hours to travel the length and breadth of the region. Mountains, beaches and cities dot the landscape and visitors will find history at every turn. Another of the Region of Murcia’s main attractions is its particularly good weather, with average temperatures in excess of 19ºC and 315 days of sun a year. All these factors offer visitors the opportunity to choose between a wide range of alternatives when organising their stay in the Region of Murcia. It is a destination full of contrasts, where everything is close at hand and easily accessible. Although the driving force behind the Region of Murcia’s economy has traditionally been agriculture, the Regional Government has made a firm commitment to converting the tourist sector into one of the pillars of the region’s economy.

  • The Great “Gypsy” Round-Up in Spain
    PROJECT EDUCATION OF ROMA | HISTORY ROMA CHILDREN COUNCIL CONSEIL OF EUROPE DE L´EUROPE IN EUROPE THE GREAT “GYPSY” 3.3 ROUND-UP IN SPAIN The Great Antonio Gómez Alfaro “Gypsy” Round-up in Spain A Preventive Security Measure l A Favourable Juncture l The Strategy l Funding the Round-up l The Prisoners’ Destination l Review of the Round-up l Problems with Freed “Gypsies” l The Reasons for the Pardon l An Unexpected Delay The Age of Enlightened Absolutism provided the authorities with increasing opportunities to apply their measures on all the citizens in their range of power. In Spain, this resulted in the most painful episode in the history of the country’s “Gypsy” community: the general round-up carried out during the reign of Ferdinand VI, on July 30, 1749. The operation, which was as thorough as it was indiscriminate, led to the internment of ten to twelve thousand people, men and women, young and old, “simply because they were Gypsies.” The co-ordination of the different public authorities involved, the co-operation of the Church, which remained passive in the face of such injustice, the excesses committed by all those who made the operation possible, and the collaboration of the prisoners’ fellow citizens and neighbours made “Black Wednesday”, as the round-up is also called, an unchallenged event in the long history of European anti-“Gypsyism”.

  • Sismicidad Y Tectónica De La Región De Murcia
    Sismicidad y Tectónica de la Región de Murcia Actividad tectónica reciente de fallas Fallas neotectónicas y activas grandes fallas son estructuras tectónicas lineales que conforman una zona de deformación (zona de falla) de ancho variable, normalmente entre 1 y 5 km, que se reconoce en superficie por longitudes de al menos 30 km, si bien éstas superan con frecuencia los 50 km, llegando excepcionalmente a 100 km en algunos casos. Casi todas las grandes fallas se pueden compartimentar en segmentos tectónicos diferenciados, que pueden presentar longitudes desde los 10-15 km hasta unos 40 km en las fallas más continuas. Las grandes fallas de la Región de Murcia pueden clasificarse de modo sencillo en cinco grupos según su actividad tectónica reciente reconocida: “Muy Baja”, “Baja”, “Media”, “Alta” y “Muy Alta”. Las clases “Muy Baja” y “Baja” califican fallas en las que no se han reconocido deformaciones en depósitos del Cuaternario o posteriores al Pleistoceno Inferior, respectivamente, y, en los que los procesos geomorfológicos asociados indican una actividad muy baja o baja. Las fallas de clase “Media” presentan procesos geomorfológicos asociados a indicadores de cierta actividad y la edad de la última deformación reconocida es al menos Pleistoceno Medio. La clase “Alta” se corresponde con fallas que deforman depósitos de edad al menos Pleistoceno Superior y presentan tasas de deslizamiento entre 0,05-0,10 m/ka (1000 años). La clase “Muy alta” la forman fallas con tasas de deslizamiento superiores a 0,10 m/ka y con deformaciones reconocidas en materiales del Pleistoceno Superior y en algunos casos del Holoceno.

  • Gordo Is Patrick Mata's Affectionate Way of Calling His Father, Jose Mata
    Gordo Gordo is Patrick Mata's affectionate way of calling his father, Jose Mata. For almost four generations, Patrick's family produced wine in Malaga, Montilla, Sanlucar, Rioja and other Spanish regions. These wines were sold in many countries, including the US, before and after prohibition. During the 60s, the demand of Malaga wines suffered greatly, which ultimately resulted in the Mata winery closing its doors in 1972. The wine Gordo pays tribute to the Mata winemaking heritage and, specifically, to Patrick's father. The Gordo label is a replica of one of the family labels from the late 1800s. Today, after a few decades, Patrick and Alberto through Vinos Atlantico are resurrecting their family heritage and producing wines in many regions throughout the Iberian Peninsula, including this rich yet elegant blend of Monastrell and Cabernet from the southeast of Spain. WHAT MAKES THIS WINE UNIQUE?: A personal wine that pays tribute to Patrick's father. Produced from dry farmed vineyards. Vines are tended in chalk soil at 713 m (2,339 ft) elevation. This type of soil and the elevation result in wines that exhibit greater freshness with lifted flavors. RATING HISTORY: 2015 91VM, 91JS, 90WA; 2014 92 JS GRAPE: 70% Monastrell, 30% Cabernet Sauvignon. Vines planted since 1970. Tended in chalk and limestone soil at 713 m (2,339 ft) elevation. PAIRING SUGGESTIONS: Try Gordo with blue cheese, stews, spicy chili and similar hearty dishes. This wine has the heft on the palate and spice to pair well with BBQ with serious heat, pulled pork sliders and “five alarm” BBQ chicken wings.
