For the same reason there are so many English dialects: first, the languages we know today are very old while the "rules" we have defined for them are relatively very young. In the evolutionary scheme of language, back when a language first developed the main concern of the people speaking it was to be understood, whether technically correct or not. Because each language developed over a widespread territory and no central authority existed to tell people "okay, this is how we are ALL going to say it, this is the rule of the language" regional variations of the same language naturally occurred. As the language has 'grown up,' we have made it more formal, but our regional dialects remain.
Second, and probably much more important, is that a language does not develop in isolation from other languages. This is especially true of languages that were brought from the Old World to the New by colonists and, in the case of the Spanish, conquistadors. As the Old World folk arrived in the New World they interacted (whether for bad or good) with the native populations in the areas they were settling. In so doing they adopted some of the cultural norms of these strangers. In México, Spanish is heavily influenced by the native Nahuatl. In Perú, you will here influence of Quechua and Armaya, and so on.
Third, as you move from region to region you will encounter different experiences than you've encountered elsewhere. The experience of people in the mountains of Perú is going to be different from the experience of people living beachside in Costa Rica. To some extent, you will hear the difference reflected in their dialect because they will each require different idioms, slang, and terminology to express their unique experience of the world.
