The annual survey by the Majorca-based research organisation, Fundació Gadeso, into feelings of identity among the people of the Balearics has revealed results similar to previous surveys. 51% of people from all the islands feel as Spanish as they do a citizen of the Balearics - a sentiment fractionally greater in Majorca than the other islands - while there are 23% who feel more Balearic than Spanish and 12% who feel more Spanish than Balearic. Only 5% feel only Spanish, while 9% say they are only Balearic.

I am afraid that is indoctrination from the schools. My niece was not allowed to recognise that the capital city was Madrid !!!! Scary. She was shocked questioned it and then was aggressively told by the teacher that she was wrong. A pro Catalan teacher.
