This is misleading. In a lot of those Spanish speaking countries they add the husband’s surname to their own.

In Brazil we carry both names. By the way some women have three last names: mother’s + father’s + husband’s

In many countries, women add their husbands to their own, they don’t replace their, so they end up with both.
Also, I ‘m not sure Brazil is true. It was made mandatory for a woman to adopt her husband’s name in the early 20th century, but since it was made optional it has been falling precipitously, the most recent data show that 50,5% of women change their names after marriage in 2022. Following the previous trend, it’s likely that by 2023 it’s already a minority of new marriages. So, still, they have both.

All of the Latino countries should be striped light blue and dark blue or the key should be changed.
