'''Spain''' is a European ''Smash'' region which encompasses [[wikipedia:Spain|the country of the same name]]. The region has 17 autonomous communities, which are sometimes split between three separate regions: '''North Spain''' (which consists of Aragon, Asturias, Basque Country, Cantabria, Castile and León, Catalonia, Galicia, La Rioja, and Navarre), '''Central Spain''' (which consists of the Balearic Islands, Castilla–La Mancha, Community of Madrid, Extremadura, Region of Murcia, and Valencian Community), and '''South Spain''' (which consists of Andalusia and the Canary Islands). The region is bordered by [[France]] to the north and [[Portugal]] to the west. In addition, despite not having a notable competitive scene, the country borders Andorra.

Though an active European scene since the ''[[Brawl]]'' days, Spain only received some representation at the highest level of competitive play, mainly from {{Sm|Overtriforce}}, one of the best ''[[Melee]]'' {{SSBM|Sheik}} players in Europe and a regular on the [[SSBMRank]], and {{Sm|Trif}}, who was first recognized globally in [[SSBMRank 2016|2016]]. As such, there were only a few Spanish players ranked on the [[European Power Rankings]] for most of the 2010s. However, 2017 marked a turn in Spain's representation, with {{Trn|Tech Republic III}} featuring several international players and becoming the largest ''Smash'' tournament in Spain. ''Ultimate'' especially hastened Spain's rise in Europe, first with Tech Republic's rise in prestige in the early metagame, and then the rise of {{Sm|Sisqui}} and {{Sm|AndresFn}} in the post-pandemic metagame; the former became one of the best European ''Ultimate'' players and was regularly successful at international events. Finally, Trif rose to become the best player in Europe in 2023 and was a contender for the [[SSBMRank]]'s top 10 in the following year. These improvements, especially in the early 2020s, led Spain to become one of the strongest ''Smash'' regions in Europe.
