According to what is stipulated in the Spanish Constitution, the Kingdom of Spain has three symbols:[1] The Spanish national flag, the coat of arms and the national anthem. Unofficially, there are also additional traditional symbols. The national personification, Hispania, is little used nowadays although it is present in different artistic expressions. The traditional symbolic animals of Spain are the fighting bull and the imperial eagle.
The National Day of Spain (Spanish: Fiesta Nacional de España) is a national holiday held annually on 12 October. It is also traditionally and commonly referred to as the Día de la Hispanidad (Hispanicity, Spanishness Day[2]), commemorating Spanish legacy worldwide, especially in Hispanic America.[3]
