Spanish is one of those languages I would love to see as a breakdown by country. I’m sure Chilean Spanish looks very different from Catalonian Spanish.

Did you mean Catalan (which is not Spanish) or Castilian Spanish?

Yes the Spanish spoken in Spain, especially the one that’s like /ˈɡɾaθjas/ and /baɾθeˈlona/.

But Spanish sounds very different in Spain depending on what region of the country you are talking about.

Yeah, and not all Spaniards have a distinct pronunciation for "c" and "s". For those curious: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phonological_history_of_Spanis...
