España/Spain is the country. People who live in España speak castellano/Castilian. "They speak spanish" is also accepted.

Eapaña means Spain, Castellano means Spanish but is sometimes used to refer to the particular form of Spanish spoken in northern and central Spain called Castilian by some.

Español and castellano are basically synonymous in Latin America but in Spain, castellano (standard Spanish) can be compared to other regional languages. Some of them like gallego in Galicia, valenciano in Valencia, and catalan in Catalunya are relatively similar to castellano while another language of Spain, Basque, is entirely unrelated.
