The Kingdom of Spain is situated in south western Europe. To the west is Portugal and the Atlantic Ocean, and to the north the Bay of Biscay and France. The east and south are bordered by the Mediterranean Sea. The capital is Madrid. The Balearic Islands (Mallorca, Menorca, Ibiza and Formentera) in the Mediterranean Sea, as well as the Canary Islands in the Atlantic off the west coast of Morocco, belong to Spain. At its southern tip lies Gibraltar and across the Straits of Gibraltar lies Morocco, making it the only European country which has a border with an African country.
The first stamps of Spain appeared in 1850 depicting Queen Isabella II. Spain still has a monarchy with King Felipe VI being the reigning monarch.
