Gibraltar (Inglis pronunciation:/dʒɨˈbrɒltəɹ/;Spaingie pronunciation: [xiβɾalˈtaɾ]) is a weeBreetish owerseas territory locatit on the soothren end o theIberie Peninsulae at the entrance o theMediterranean. It haes an aurie o6.8 square kilometre (2.6 sq mi) an anorthren border wiAndalusie,Spain. TheRock o Gibraltar is the major laundmerk o the region. At its fuit is the densely populatit ceety aurie, hame tae amaist 30,000Gibraltarians an ither naitionalities.[8]

An Anglo-Dutch forcecaptured Gibraltar frae Spain in 1704 durin theWar o the Spaingie Succession. The territory wis subsequently cedit tae Breetain "in perpetuity" unner theTreaty o Utrecht in 1713. It wis an important base for theRyal Navy; the day its economy is based lairgely on tourism, financial services, an shippin.[9][10]

The sovereignty o Gibraltar is a major pynt o contention inAnglo-Spaingie relations as Spain assertsa claim tae the territory.[10] Gibraltarians rejectit proposals for Spainyie sovereignty in a1967 referendum anagain in 2002. Unner theGibraltar constitution o 2006, Gibraltar govrens its awn affairs, tho some pouers, such as defence an foreign relations, remain the responsibility o the UK Govrenment.
