 Astur-Leonese
The Leonese language is spoken in Leon (the Spanish provinces of Leon and Zamora), in the Portuguese provinces of Miranda de Douro and Sendim, and in the Asturian Principality.
The Leonese language is the Leon's own – the language which was formed inside the Leonese territory and which was spoken by their ancestors.
It took form in the territory in which it is spoken now, from the implantation of Latin by the Romans with contributiona from the pre-Roman languages which were spoken in the territory of the Astures, an ancient tribe of the Iberian peninsula.

Their leader's title was "Conde de Castilla y �lava" (subordinated to the Asturian and Later Astur-Leonese monarch), and their language, castellano, future Spanish, is a romance -Latin origin- language with a very hard and noticeable linguistic influence from the non-romance (and much older) Basque language (specially from a phonetic point of view).
Some areas in the Leonese Mountains (near Asturies) El Bierzo, Sanabria and the North West of Zamora still keep the language (at an oral level).
The original and traditional Castillian institutions (administration, culture, etc) were very Basque, and opposed to the Asturian -and later Leonese- monarchy and laws.

 Mirandese
It a descendant of the ancient Leonese language of northern Iberia, the last remnant of the ancient language of the Kingdom of León.
It has its roots in the spoken Latin of the north of the Iberian Peninsula (Portuguese developed in the northwest).
However, these amalgamations in the Spanish territory did not affect Mirandese, which preserves distinct linguistic differences in relation to both Portuguese and Spanish.

 Asturian language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Asturian, Leonese, Astur-Leonese or Bable (Asturianu in Asturian, Llïonés in Leonese) is a Romance language spoken in some parts of the provinces of Asturias, León, Zamora and Salamanca in Spain, and in the area of Miranda de Douro in Portugal (where it is officially recognized as Mirandese).
The denial of recognition of Asturian or Leonese as an official language has driven Asturian and Leonese to an apparent dead end.
In spite of all the difficulties that government policies (both the Asturian government and the Spanish government) have caused, the number of young people learning and using it (mainly as a written language) has substantially increased in recent years, mainly among intellectual groups and politically active Asturians and Leonese proud of their regional identity.

 Extremaduran language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Only in Asturias (where the language was born) had the people conscience of speaking a language, different from Castilian; but even there only some authors used it in their writings.
Probably the cultural upheaval of Salamanca's Castilian University was the cause of the quick Castilianisation of this province, so dividing the Astur-Leonese domain between the Asturian in the north (today also called "Astur-Leonese" and bable or bables), and the Extremaduran in the south of the old Leonese kingdom.
The expansion of Spanish also came from the south with the economic revival of the Province of Badajoz.

 All Empires History Forum: Why did Portugal never join Spain?
The Portuguese language was seperate from Castillian and Leonese, but indistinct from Galician at this period of time.
Some Galicians still say that Portuguese is really Galician modified due to moorish influence.
The question should be 'why did Portugal never join Castile?'
