Catalanic Community

The term Catalanic Community, and the demonym Catalanic, were proposed by Miquel Adlert and other Valencianists as alternative concepts to the Països Catalans (Catalan Countries) and the Catalan nation, as a sole nation, with the intention to define a name that is accepted by all the territories of the Catalan-speaking community. Thus it was expressed his need in a manifest at Serra d'Or. June 1961, no. 6, signed, among others, by Alfons Verdeguer, Xavier Casp, Miquel Adlert, Jaume Bru i Vidal, Alfons Cucó, Rafael Villar and Beatriu Civera:

per al dit conjunt de València, Mallorca i Catalunya acceptem la denominació suggerida fa poc per Miquel Adlert Noguerol de "Comunitat Catalànica", on la primera paraula indica el tipus d'unió que existia i és el que acceptem, i la segona afirma la unitat de llengua i cultura, alhora que ens dóna un gentilici comú i nou per a tots, que conservem així els antics, junt amb les denominacions de sempre per a les nostres terres".
