This territorial organisation, based on <a href="/wiki/Devolution" title="Devolution">devolution</a>, is known in Spain as the "State of Autonomies" (<i>Estado de las Autonomías</i>). The basic institutional law of each autonomous community is the <a href="/wiki/Statute_of_Autonomy" class="mw-redirect" title="Statute of Autonomy">Statute of Autonomy</a>. The Statutes of Autonomy establish the name of the community according to its historical and contemporary identity, the limits of its territories, the name and organisation of the institutions of government and the rights they enjoy according to the constitution.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTESpanish_Constitution1978Article_147_189-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTESpanish_Constitution1978Article_147-189"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>173<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> This ongoing process of devolution means that, while officially a <a href="/wiki/Unitary_state" title="Unitary state">unitary state</a>, Spain is nevertheless one of the most <a href="/wiki/Decentralised" class="mw-redirect" title="Decentralised">decentralised</a> countries in Europe, along with <a href="/wiki/Federation" title="Federation">federations</a> like <a href="/wiki/Belgium" title="Belgium">Belgium</a>, <a href="/wiki/Germany" title="Germany">Germany</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Switzerland" title="Switzerland">Switzerland</a>.<sup id="cite_ref-190" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-190"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>174<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>Catalonia, Galicia and the Basque Country, which identified themselves as <i>nationalities</i>, were granted self-government through a rapid process. Andalusia also identified itself as a nationality in its first Statute of Autonomy, even though it followed the longer process stipulated in the constitution for the rest of the country. Progressively, other communities in revisions to their Statutes of Autonomy have also taken that denomination in accordance with their historical and modern identities, such as the Valencian Community,<sup id="cite_ref-191" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-191"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>175<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> the Canary Islands,<sup id="cite_ref-192" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-192"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>176<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> the Balearic Islands,<sup id="cite_ref-193" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-193"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>177<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> and Aragon.<sup id="cite_ref-194" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-194"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>178<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>The autonomous communities have wide legislative and executive autonomy, with their own elected parliaments and governments as well as their own dedicated <a href="/wiki/Public_Administration_of_Spain" title="Public Administration of Spain">public administrations</a>.

For instance, only two communities—the Basque Country and Navarre—have full fiscal autonomy based on ancient <a href="/wiki/Fuero" title="Fuero">foral</a> provisions. Nevertheless, each autonomous community is responsible for healthcare and education, among other public services.<sup id="cite_ref-195" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-195"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>179<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> Beyond these competencies, the <i>nationalities</i>—<a href="/wiki/Andalusia" title="Andalusia">Andalusia</a>, the <a href="/wiki/Pais_Vasco" class="mw-redirect" title="Pais Vasco">Basque Country</a>, <a href="/wiki/Catalonia" title="Catalonia">Catalonia</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Galicia_(Spain)" title="Galicia (Spain)">Galicia</a>—were also devolved more powers than the rest of the communities, among them the ability of the regional president to dissolve the parliament and call for elections at any time.

This is thanks to universities such as those in Barcelona, Valencia, Madrid, Granada and Salamanca. Although nowhere near as popular as Spain, we find Germany in second place. It is a country that also has a large number of prestigious universities spread out across many cities. The fact that Germany is an economic powerhouse makes it an attractive destination for those searching for employment after studying. France, the United Kingdom and Italy appear in third, fourth and fifth position. The rest of countries rank behind at a considerable distance. <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.wimdu.co.uk/blog/discover-popular-erasmus-destinations">What are the most popular Erasmus destinations?</a> <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20230630180757/https://www.wimdu.co.uk/blog/discover-popular-erasmus-destinations">Archived</a> 30 June 2023 at the <a href="/wiki/Wayback_Machine" title="Wayback Machine">Wayback Machine</a></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-23"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-23">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite class="citation web cs1"><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20210513000611/https://www.cervantes.es/sobre_instituto_cervantes/prensa/2017/noticias/Presentaci%C3%B3n-Anuario-2017.htm">"572 millones de personas hablan español, cinco millones más que hace un año, y aumentarán a 754 millones a mediados de siglo"</a>. <i>www.cervantes.es</i>.
