The Spanish language developed over a long period from Latin (Spain was a part of the Roman Empire for about 600 years). Following the fall of the Roman empire, the Visigoths that controlled the Iberian peninsula (where Spain is located) adopted Latin as their language. Technically there are 4 languages in Spain, the one we're talking about is also called "Castellano". Like French, Italian, Portuguese, and other languages, Castellano developed over many many years as a variation of Latin.
