 Even during that time and until recently, any form of regional independence was more prompted by economic factors than any form of ideological regionalism.In a 2002 survey, 87% of Asturians showed a strong regional identification, but not to the exclusion of a Spanish identity.The most important "regionalist" party is Asturias Forum ("Foro Asturias", FAC), which split from the People's Party in 2011.
