French Basque Country The French Basque Country, or Northern Basque Country ( (i.e. 'the Northern Region'), , ) is a region lying on the
Southern Basque Country centred in the Basque Country (1872–76). At the end of it, the "fueros" were definitely abolished in the Basque Provinces (Álava, Biscay, and Gipuzkoa), while Navarre's legal status was less affected. The 1876 definite abolition of the charters ("fueros") was followed by a political stir leading to the popular uprising "Gamazada" centred in Navarre (1893–94), echoed in Biscay (Gernika) by the "Sanrocada", and attempts started to be made to re-establish a single political status for the Basque territories in Spain, with the most significant being the Statute of Estella, 1932 in the early period of the 2nd Spanish Republic.
