I know, politically it is. But geographically it's situated more than 3500 km from the main land. More important there exist separate catalogues for Canarian cigar brands. It can be a separate collection interest. So we fill both 'countries'.

What does distance have to do with being the same country, it is NOT a colony, for which it is not considered a country.

It is just to indicate a collectors area.  It has nothing to do with political or administrative division.
Of course it is Spain.
But it is also true that tourists going there prefer to speak of a 'Trip to the Canary Islands' than of a 'Trip to Spain'. It sounds more expensive :)

Unfortunately, the label in the Cigra bands category is 'Countries'.  It better should be 'Regions'.  As it is labelled in the Stamps category.
Since so many beautiful cigar bands are issued in Spain (country), it is an advantage that they can be displayed here in 2 different groups.

Maybe for the best rename 'Country' to 'Regions'?

Dat kan Martinel niet doen. Ik kan het echter wel aanpassen zoals bij Postzegels: Landen / Gebieden,.

Ja ok, maar hij is wel baas in zijn rubriek.  Ik kan enkel maar iets voorstellen.

Dat klopt zeker, maar je kan nu zien hoe dit eruit ziet bij Sigarenbandjes.
Indien Martinel dit niet wil, draai ik het zo terug.

Collectioneur Raoul62 : It's okay.
The situation in the cigar bands section is not so complicated as in the stamps section, but hopefully it avoids future discussions about former states like Yugoslavia, East Germany,..

Everybody happy again.  Thats what we need on LD.

I also had a second idea: make the name 'Canary Islands (Spain)'?  To indicate it's about a region of Spain.  and not a country by itself.

And a third one via the administration panel (for the moderators): 'Onderhoud verzamelgebied', 'Naam variaties'.  There you can also put the country name.  As a user you won't see it, but in the search results (if you search for Spain) you wil see the difference.

Let's hope Pedro appreciates the efforts of the LD team vitolin ?

The field countries/regions is plural. Both Canary Islands and Spain can be filled in separately.

Hello again, I have never tried to remove Canary Islands, which is a community of the Kingdom of Spain, for me I have no problem, it was just for information.
Best regards
