General guidelines for the development and prosperity of the province of Vizcaya

Guillermo Ibáñez García, Vicente de Vidaurrazaga Acha

Vizcaya, located in the wildest area of ​​the Cantabrian Sea, has marked its destinies in time with the maritime expeditions that have made its fame famous since ancient times. Deep-sea fishing and transactions with distant countries mark the initiation of Vizcaya into world economic history. What is the precise moment in which the upward movement of our economy occurs? It is impossible to answer this curiosity without going back to past, distant times, and without recounting the most interesting news that has reached us about the efforts of the people of Biscay to expand their sphere of influence. Through the various manifestations of its activity, we will be able to appreciate the uninterrupted movement of progress that characterizes the companies of Vizcaya, a town that knew how to proudly carry its name through distant lands and overseas at times when, due to the fear of difficult navigation and positive risks, the commercial flows of many powerful countries of the Middle Ages did not reach them.
