A misspelling magnet
The generator records 12 spelling variants around Andalucía (IPA [ãn̪d̪aluˈsia]), aproper noun. Corpus frequency is #2,963 among 120,137 “A” headwords. Wiktionary lists 2 senses, so context still picks the gloss.

It also participates in 2 confusable-pair relationships, "andaluza", "andaluces", since the words sound or look close enough that writers reach for the wrong one mid-sentence.
