When did Christmas start in Spain?
That really depends on which part of Spain you're talking about. Some more northerly parts of the country have always been Christian, such as Navarre, Valencia and parts of Aragon. However, the Kingdom of Castile and Leon, which covered the vast majority of the country, was, for the most part and from 718 up until 1250, Muslim. In 1037, the Spanish started fighting back to regaine their lands. This was known as the Reconquista, and succeeded in winning back all of Spain but the south. Granada, the location of the Alhambra, was finally won back by Ferdinand and Isabella in 1492. The last Sultan of Granada, Boabdil, was one of the last Muslim rulers in Europe (only the Ottoman Sultans and Kings of Albania ruled after him).

How did people start to speak Spanish in Spain?
Spanish is derivative of Latin. It was not like how English came to the Americas, where nobody was speaking a language similar to English and then Englishmen showed up and started speaking English. In Spain, people spoke proper Latin roughly 2000 years ago, but as the centuries plowed on, each region of the Roman Empire developed dialectical differences. In Spain, these differences led to the slow transformation from Latin to Late Latin to Proto-Castilian, to Old Castilian, to Modern Spanish. Every person would speak a very similar language to his parents, but might add a word or two or change pronunciation of a certain letter. These changes added up over time to result in a language, Spanish, which is not mutually intelligible with Latin.
