Spanish is also called Castellano because of a region of Spain called "Castilla" where Spanish language started around 800 C.E.
Many Spaniards from other parts of Spain such as Galicia, Asturias, Basque Country, Valencia, the Balaeric Islands, and most certainly Cataluña take offense to the idea that their endemic languages are not considered "Spanish" because they are part of Spain and are just as old as Castillian (Castellano).

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."
