Who are Ibiza Catalans?
Ibiza Catalans are people from Ibiza in the Balearic Islands, a Mediterranean island with links to Catalonia, Valencia, Mallorca, Menorca, North Africa, Phoenician and Punic settlement, Roman rule, Islamic periods, Aragonese conquest, and modern Spanish island life.
Catalan is historically rooted in the Balearic Islands, with local Ibizan varieties, while Spanish is also widely used. Ibiza should be read as a Balearic island reference rather than simply a mainland Catalan profile.
As a genetic reference, Spanish Baleares Ibiza Catalan is useful for comparison with broad Balearic Catalan, Mallorca, Menorca, Valencian Alicante, Castilla-La Mancha, Andalusian, Catalonia Peri-Barcelona, Valencian, and Terres de l'Ebre references.
