Tortosa Pact
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Federal Tortosa Pact, or simply, Tortosa Pact (Catalan: Pacte Federal de Tortosa or Pacte de Tortosa), was an ideological manifest and organizational project from Republican and Federal forces of Aragon, the Balearic Islands, Catalonia and Valencia, signed in Tortosa on May 18, 1869. This may be regarded as a precedent of a Catalanist base movement, which some years later, Acció Catalanista and Estat Català adopted from different perspectives.
When the First Spanish Republic was established (1873), there were different attempts in Barcelona to proclaim a Catalan state within a Spanish Federal Republic.
