Show answer and explanation
✓ En todo el territorio de España
Castilian, also called Spanish, is the official language of the State in the whole Spanish territory. All Spaniards have the duty to know it and the right to use it. In some comunidades autónomas (regions with self-government) there is also another co-official language, such as Catalan, Galician or Basque, but that does not take validity away from Castilian: in those places both are used. Remember: Castilian equals official in all of Spain.
