I Recently discovered the mechanical keyboards, and i love it, but i have a doubt:
-Is standardized for all countries? For Spain for example.
-I have change the configuration and buy a single key for Ñ?
-Someone can explain me what i need to do?

jhonretselHi,
welcome to the wonderfull hobby of mechanical keyboards and welcome to the pain and horror if you insist to get fitting keycaps to your language :)
"-Is standardized for all countries? For Spain for example." No, you may take a look (i.e.): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keyboard_layout or http://kbd-intl.narod.ru/english/layouts
"-I have change the configuration and buy a single key for Ñ?" That won't be possible, you would need to buy/join a keycapdrop/sale where childdeals according to your needs are given. For example: https://www.massdrop.com/buy/granite-keycap-set It's easy to spend something around 100-200 bucks, or you must be lucky to find an old keyboard in your country (ebay) to take of your desired caps and exchange them, might not look to good if the mix of old and new doesn't match your liking.
"-Someone can explain me what i need to do?" Maybe there might be some help here: http://www.spanish411.net/Spanish-Typing-Special-Characters.asp - http://www.spanish411.net/resources/SpanishKeyboard-Spain.pdf
Being german i've switched to EurKEY: http://eurkey.steffen.bruentjen.eu/layout.html long time ago, freedom to use ansi keyboards/keycapsets without missing my language given needs, your missing ñ would be Alt Gr + n or Ñ would be Shift + Alt Gr + n for example, logical assigned to n/N for me which is easy to memorize.
Good luck and have fun
