Answer

Why do pranks on Día de los Inocentes cause confusion in Mallorca?

Día de los Inocentes is a traditional joke day in Spain, but in Mallorca it can still cause real confusion when a prank looks like a serious news report. People often react before they have time to verify the facts, especially when the topic involves property, public buildings or local politics. That mix of tradition and fast-moving online sharing makes false stories hard to control.
