Espanol
It depends. The official language of Spain is "castellano", or Castillian. King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella, of the province of Castile, led the fight against the Moors, who were in Spain from 711 - 1492. After the expulsion of the Moors, "castellano" became the dominant dialect and is what we now call Spanish. Most Latin American countries, feeling no attachment to Castile, do not call their language castellano; they call it espanol. Interestingly, Chileans also call the language "castellano."
