This year Barcelona marked the day with a huge demonstration calling for Catalan independence. Emboldened by the vast crowds, Artur Mas, who has been president of the Generalitat since 2010, called an election on November 25th, two years early. He wants a mandate to turn Catalonia into "a state within Europe" and to win it "the right to decide" on its own standing. Many balconies in Barcelona, by tradition a socialist rather than a nationalist city, are now draped with the Catalan flag of scarlet and yellow stripes, often with the addition of a white star to symbolise an independent state.
