Abstract

The Diccionario geográfico-histórico de España of the Royal Academy of History was conceived as a work for public utility to learn geography and history. The idea of improving its rules and making it exhaustive, and the change of method in 1797 (general alphabetical of all the kingdoms and provinces instead of particular alphabetical), delayed its publication. In 1799 the first section was prepared focused on the area of which most complete information was hold: the kingdom of Navarra, the domain of Vizcaya and the provinces of Álava and Guipúzcoa.
