EH Bildu, short for Euskal Herria Bildu (English: Basque Country Gather or Basque Country Unite), is a left-wing, Basque nationalist and pro-independence political party and a federation of political parties in Spain. It is the main political force of the abertzale left in Spain. EH Bildu is active in the Spanish autonomous communities of Basque Country and Navarre and in the Treviño enclave of the Burgos Province.[9]
