ser/estar & por/para

Does the ser/estar distinction exist in Romlangs beyond Iberia?  Spanish has them.  Portuguese does. So does Catalan, but the others don't do that, right?  I don't think I want a similar distinction in C-a.
 
What about the por/para distinction.  How wide spread is that?  I'm concidering a three way distinction on "for" -- peru/peu/para(or worse pera).  I don't know why I'd do this to myself since por and para already drive me to distraction in Spanish, but I *am* concidering it.  Maybe it's the cold medicine.
