It seems odd that after 524 years of Spanish being in the New World, the language hasn't drifted into multiple new languages? One would figure that geography, politics, and influence from the native languages would've encouraged the development of daughter languages or creoles. You have Afrikaans as precedent and it took less time for it to become its own language. I don't care for the POD (though the later the better) but what it would take for the Mexican, Peruvian, etc. dialects to be declared their own separate languages?
