I told you in my previous post: Historical, linguistic, genetic, and racial reasons.
Do you consider Portugal as a nation, only because all Portuguese share the same linguistic variety of Western Ibero-Romace? There must be other things, otherwise, Brazilians and Moçambiquenhos could join your nation

I consider all germans, including alsatians, swiss germans, southern tirolese, luxenbouguese and germans from germany as the same ethnicity and in the case of Germany and Austria germans the same nation.

Please, tell me what are your reasons to consider all Germans a single nation and not all Spaniards. And please don't say that they share the same language and the Spaniards don't, because an Alemannic speaker from Southern Germany or Switzerland will find it harder to understand a Low Saxon speaker from Bremen, than a Catalan speaker from Girona to understand a Castilian speaker from Palencia, or a Galician speaker from Carballiño.
