Wikipedia: Catalan is a Romance language, the national and official language of Andorra, and a co-official language in the Spanish autonomous communities of Catalonia, the Balearic Islands and Valencian Community, where it is known as Valencià, as well as in the city of Alghero on the Italian island of Sardinia. It is also spoken in the autonomous communities of Aragon and Murcia in Spain, and, officially recognised to some extent, in the historic Roussillon region of southern France, roughly equivalent to the current département of the Pyrénées-Orientales.
