Venezuelans in Spain form one of the main immigrant groups from Hispanic America in the country. Spain is the European country most Venezuelans choose to migrate because of the language and shared customs. Also, much of Venezuelans who emigrate, are allowed to gain Spanish citizenship because of their ancestral background.[1]
History
As one of the former Spanish colonies in the Americas, Venezuela shares a common colonial past with Spain.
The community of descendants of Spaniards in Venezuela is important and that is why many are able to acquire Spanish citizenship.
