Paris (Lord Media): A unique historical site, Pheasant Island, located in the Bidasoa River between France and Spain, witnesses a governmental transition every six months. Since 1659, under the Treaty of the Pyrenees, the island has been alternately governed by Spain and France for six months each. This treaty played a crucial role in ending a prolonged conflict between the two nations and restoring peace. Under this agreement, leaders from both countries designated the island as a neutral site, where the King of France married a Spanish princess. The island is closed to the general public, with access restricted to official representatives. However, it can be viewed from the Spanish town of Irun or the French town of Hendaye, situated on either side of the river.
