Culture
cultural depth
Top cultural centers
Romania's 3.4/5 culture score (across 1 scored city); Spain's 3.9/5 culture score (across 20 scored cities) — not enough data to call a winner.
Passport reach
what the passport opens
Romania's passport reaches 103 destinations visa-free to Spain's 105 — Spain opens more doors without a visa. Passport strength shifts over years of naturalisation, not months of planning, so it's a long-horizon footnote — not scored in the tally.

Romania sees ~1 air passenger per resident a year; Spain sees ~7 air passengers per resident a year — a derived figure, not itself ranked.
Climate
where most people live · °C
Romania runs -13°C to 35°C for most people; Spain runs -5°C to 35°C for most people. Depends on you — which range fits your tolerance is the real question here, not a score.
