<<Romans and other conquerors imposed their language to their colonies by force otherwise the languages from where is now Spain would have remain almost intact, or at least would have evolved by themselves, just like Basque survived.>>
Latin was not imposed by force. It was just more advantageous for the people of the provinces to learn Latin, as it was the language of the conquerors, of government, of administration, of trade with the metropolis of the empire. Not to mention that the thousands of colonists and occupying forces spoke it, which means that a large segment of the population, and the ones with power, also spoke Latin. If you wanted to communicate with them, or even understand them, you had best learn Latin. It was also a language which unified people from all over Gaul and Spain, who spoke many different tribal languages. Latin was not forcibly imposed on the people. They chose to learn it because it was to their benefit.
