Best Answer

France and Spain are the countries from which the Basque people wanted their freedom.

Specifically, the Basque live predominantly in seven provinces which straddle both sides of southwest France's border with northwest Spain. They may share such economic activities as farming, fishing, small-scale business, and tourism with their French and Spanish neighbors. But they speak a language which is not at all related to French and Spanish. They therefore worry about losing their cultural and linguistic identities in two countries with little else in common other than geography and religion.

The countries are: France and Spain. The liberation fight that was now quit and originates from the group ETA has focused on Spain rather than France, because the majority of the basques live in spain and also the politics in Spain and France are rather different regarding the question of the basques.
