The geographical situation of Spanish territory (mainland and islands) as well as the topography, climate and geological events occurred from the end of the Tertiary period through the early Quaternary, constitute some of the peculiarities that have conditioned the appearance in Spain of a particular Flora, quantitatively and intrinsically the richest of the European continent.
