Byzantine Baleric Empire

Conquered during Justinians Reconquest of the West, the baleric islands were at the western most reaches of the empire. I was wondering if they could be the England of the Byzantine Empire? Possible secessionist regime? would the balerics not be noticed and could carry on a byzantine sucessor state?

The Balearics had less than a quarter million inhabitants in 1822 and fell pretty easily to the muslims; they'd probably not claim successor state status but falling from the empire is likely.
