really good question terry it really is a standoff and really everybody is waiting both margaret the capital city of spain as well as barcelona the capital city of catalonia the region what's next now the different could be for example that really the the regional problem in catalonia is calling out or declaring independence now when that happens what madrid could do is basically. use article one hundred fifty five of the constitution which would mean in danger of the unity of spain they could strip catalonia all together all of their autonomy if that happens probably more violence is going to rot but as you hear already if you don't really know what's going to happen in the next hours what we knew we do know at this point of course is police is bracing for more protests and definitely that not only that x. few hours but the next few days are going to be full of tensions as so far there's no medication in sight bonnie thank you very much bonnie for char there on the streets of barcelona. well spanish football giants barcelona have thrown their weight behind a general strike in catalonia on tuesda

of course, it gets a lot of tourists who are visiting the capital in the capital or visit capital citiese get a lot of school groups. and they wanted to have a way to inform people about the history of this state. so they conceived of something that as far as we know is unlike anything else in the country, which is a project to place a life-sized bronze statue of every former governor on a trail in the state capital. so it starts here, goes around the capital grounds and the governor's mansion. then down capital aff new to the county courthouse, which is the site of the first building. then down the main street, down to the american legion headquarters which is on the missouri river. this is governor george s. mickelson, the governor from 1987 to 1993 and it was really a period of transformation for the state. governor mickelson was a very charismatic, energy jest jetic, positive guy. he had been in the state legislature. his father had been governor in the 19 40's. for governor he really wasn't a well-known figure and did a lot of door to door campaigning and on the ground campaigning f

and height of the referendum were mounting here across the region of cataloging especially in the capital city of wasilla now we saw a lot of protest movement happening both especially on saturday and on friday and madrid as well as spanish unionists a rally in front of the city hall and barcelona during one demonstration a man at tempted to tear down a pro independence banner from the town hall and in one of the schools four people were attacked with a pallid gun and some of them even received a minor injuries on friday night and neither school building which was supposed to be appalling station was vandalized while people were still inside sleeping there protecting the building now let's recap some of the advance of what happened in this country in spain and especially in the region of cats a lot and the past couple of days to go ok. go. go go go. today is a crucial day of the voting at the voting the referendum on independence of council on an old eyes are indeed at the pauling stations located across the region and here and the capital city of boston people behind my back are ready to vote

the capital city of design and. itself has its share of planning mistakes of course. monocle magazine says that why copenhagen only made it to sixth place on this year's list well the most livable city. we've seen extraordinary growth within the city a lot of new development but a lot of new development which is not very sympathetic to the rest of the built environment so quite buildings architecturally but we see a lot of buildings which have no relationship to the street. despite this criticism residents still regard copenhagen as europe's most pleasant capital. is so many people. really enjoying it there's always happy people and. in the summer time this is a special place to be monaco magazine says reducing the twenty five percent value added tax in restaurants would be yet one more way copenhagen could improve its already outstanding quality of life. while i'm yet to visit copenhagen but it seems like a great place to go what do you think what is your favorite european city if you want to write in let us know then you will be in with a chance of winning this trave

my end point will be the country's biggest city, and its grand capital, belgrade. on the river's northern bank. now, on the face of it, this city centre is much like any other in serbia, but what's intriguing and surprising is that, beneath my feet, beneath these streets, are the ruins of a former capital of the roman empire. it was called sirmium then. the romans chose this spot because of its location on the sava. the word sirmium means flowing water. most of the roman city, including a hippodrome, still lies beneath the modern metropolis, but some remains, like this huge imperial palace complex, have been excavated. it was 1957 when the workers started to make an apartment building and then these walls appeared. some historians think as many as 18 roman emperors were born in the territory of modern—day serbia, and that five of those were born here in sirmium itself. it's a heritage this archaeologist thinks is little known outside of the balkans, largely due to the period in the late ‘90s when serbia was seen by some as a political pariah, because of the conflict
