Best Answer

Spain has a number of distinct cultures and societies since it was never culturally united for any long stretch of time. The last person who tried was General Franco and he came up against the Basque-Catalan juggernaut in attempting to force a unified Castillian identity. The Crown of Aragon was well-known to function as a confederacy under one monarch of the regions of Catalonia, Aragon, Valencia, and the Balaeric Islands. When the Crown of Castille united with the Crown of Aragon, they initiated a similar arrangement. The laws of Spain, for example, were not unified until the 1830s. The regions of Castille are more homogenous, but because of the unique languages in the west and the history of Arab/Amazigh rule in the south, unique cultures developed in different parts of Castille which were preserved in art and linguistic forms that survive to this day.
