What are the prestige dialects of your country?

The redeeming feature of remaining a patchwork of small non-industrial states is that standard Italian was the "prestige dialect" for centuries
So any dialect is seen as uneducated and lower class, some of course more than others but still

Anything other than a dead standard middle income Lisbon accent sounds ridiculous.

The manner of speaking of the rich is as ridiculed as the manner of the poor. Not to mention the ex-colonies.

Definitely the Atlantic dialects as spoken by Newfoundlanders and Maritimers. They all sound so hard working, sober, and intelligent.

There are no prestige dialects in spanish. You just try to sound as neutral as possible, the more accent you have, the more stigmatized it becomes. This rule doesn't apply to Spain and Spain's views though, only to latin america.

Castille: Prestige
North: Good
Catalonia: Kind of weird
Basque Country: Drunk-tier
Galicia: ayy lmao
Andalucia: shit tier / gyppo
Latin America (in general): Stop Speaking my Language - tier

Prestige dialect:
As Danish influenced as possible, up to a certain point, then it gets fedora.

Low prestige:
Dialects from Oslo and the surrounding region
