Barcelona, a city on the northeastern coast of Spain and the capital and largest city of the autonomous community of Catalonia, as well as the second-most populous municipality of Spain with a population of 1.7 million citizens, was founded, according to Wikipedia, by either the Phoenicians or the Carthaginians, who had trading posts along the Catalan coast. Barcelona whose name comes from the ancient Iberian Baŕkeno, is the main biotech hub in Spain and its international airport, Barcelona – El Prat Airport, handles over 50-million passengers per year.
