Spain has always been a rival of the United Batavian States. Back in the 16th and 17th century Spain occupied the low countries, but the Dutch rebelled against the Spanish and so the 80 Years War began. The Dutch pushed the Spanish back to their own land after the Dutch annexation of Belgium, Luxembourg and France, thus creating the United Batavian States.

The Batavians dislike Spanish ever since.

-No.
-I'm sure there's at least a couple people who speak it. ._.'
-Most learn Russian or French/English (Depending on the province from which they hail)

Spanish isn't extremely important, because it isn't any kind of language Mapellans commonly come across. The ones they do, in decreasing popularity, are English, French, Russian, Japanese, Pacific Island languages such as Polynesian (etc..)
If Spanish became more popular in the USA, more people in Mapelum might consider learning it, but there'd need to be at least a 50% fluency of the language in at least one of our neighbours for it to be relevant.
