Spain

Spain is a country in Europe, located on the Iberian peninsula in the southwest part of the continent. Stretching from the Atlantic Ocean to the Mediterranean Sea, and nearly touching Africa at Gibraltar, Spain's history has been strongly influenced by being a crossroads between Europe and Africa, having been a land of Muslims and Christians in the medieval era.

During World War I, Spain remained neutral. In World War II — after the Nationals won the Spanish Civil War against the Republicans — it also remained neutral — though heavily Axis-oriented through most of the war with the help of General Francisco Franco. However, it placed heavy border surveillance on its boundaries.

Today the nation has a number of cities in the African country of Morocco.

Behind the scenes

Early in development of Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis, the Spanish city of Cadiz was going to be visited alongside Tikal, New York City, Iceland and the Azores throughout the game. However, the location was removed from the finished story.[2] The city and country did appear in Dark Horse Comics' comic book adaptation which was adapted from an earlier iteration of the game.[3]
