The '''Catalan language''' is a [[Romance language]]. It is the official language of [[Andorra]]. It is also widely spoken in the [[Catalonia]] (Cat: ''Catalunya'') and [[Valencia]] regions of [[Spain]], the extreme southwest of [[France]], and parts of the [[Italy|Italian]] [[island]] of [[Sardinia]]. Because of its prevalence in Valencia, it is also known as the Valencian language. It is closely related to the [[Occitan language]].
