1. latin americans and spanish pronounce the "s" the same way (although in some cities in Spain "s" is pronounced like "th" in english, this is called "cecear"). The difference in pronuntiation between latinamericans and spanish is in the "z" and "c" , in Latin America "z" and "c" are pronounced like "s" (this is called sesear) while in Spain are pronounced like "th"

2. more than 400,000,000 all over the globe

3. Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, Venezuela, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, Chile, Argentina, Paraguay, Uruguay, Spain

4. Península Ibérica (Iberian Peninsula)

Hope that helps ;)
