Palma is the major city and port in the island of Majorca and capital city of the autonomous community of the

Balearic Islands in Spain. It is situated on the south coast of the island on the Bay of Palma. As of the 2005 census, the population of the city of Palma proper was 375,773, and the population of the entire urban area was estimated to be 474,035, ranking as the 12th-largest urban area of Spain. Almost half of the total population of Majorca live in Palma.

The archipelago of Cabrera, though widely separated from Palma proper, is administratively considered part of the municipality.
Its airport, Son Sant Joan, is one of the busiest in Europe.
The Marivent Palace was offered by the city to the then Prince Juan Carlos I of Spain. The royals have since spent their summer holidays in Palma.

Palma (Palmaria) was founded by the Romans upon the remains of a Talayot settlement which is believed to have strong ties with the sea. It was later the object of several Vandal sacks during the Fall of Rome, to be later conquered by the Bizantine, then the Arabs (who called it Medina Mayurqa), and finally by James I of Aragon.

From the beginning of the second half of the 20th century, the advent of mass tourism radically changed the fisionomy of the city and of the whole island, and transformed it into a centre of attraction for visitors, and also for workers of other zones of Spain. Altogether, it caused a huge change in the traditions, the sociolinguistical map, urbanism, and acquisitive power.

The boom in tourism caused Palma to grow significantly, with repercussions on immigration. In 1960 Mallorca received 500.000 visitors, in 1997 it received more than 6.739.700. In 2001 more than 19.200.000 people passed through Son Sant Joan airport in Palma, and almost 1,5 million came by sea.

While entering the 21st century, urban redevelopment, in the called Pla Mirall (English "Mirror Plan"), attracted important groups of immigrant workers from outside the European Union, from Africa and South America.
