Following a long institutional and social struggle, the Parliament of Catalonia approved the creation of the Lluçanès county (comarca) on May 3, 2023, an event celebrated as a historic milestone for the region.

The official recognition of Lluçanès as an independent county ended decades of demands by the constituent municipalities, seeking better administrative management and a distinct territorial identity.
This legislative approval, highlighted in the editorial of the local media outlet La Rella, underscores the importance of civic and political perseverance in achieving full administrative sovereignty for the territory.
The new county, despite its small size, represents a model of territorial organization based on internal cohesion and popular will, setting a precedent for other regions with similar aspirations.
