Even though Spain is constitutionally defined as a non-confessional nation, the Catholic Church still holds great power.

MEXICO CITY — Tens of thousands of women vanished from streets, offices and classrooms across Mexico on Monday, part of a nationwide strike to protest the violence they suffer and to demand government action against it.
