1. The ethnic composition of this country is very complicated. In this country of Chile, people of mixed race of white and Indian are considered as one kind of people, and people of mixed race of white and Indian at birth are also considered as one kind of people. Moreover, there are British, Germans, French and so on among whites, and there are many nationalities among Indians, so it is difficult for you to count them.

2.59% of the population consider themselves as descendants of white Europeans, 25% consider themselves as Mestizos (a hybrid of white Europeans and Indians), and the rest are descendants of African blacks, Indians and other nationalities. The whites in Chile are mainly descendants of Spanish colonists (mainly Spaniards, Andalusians and Basques) and immigrants from Portugal, Italy, Ireland, France, Greece, Germany, Britain, the Netherlands, Croatia, Russia, Poland, Hungary and other countries. Of course, these European nations and Arab descendants from the Middle East to Chile also have mixed blood. The population of African descent has always been relatively small, accounting for about 1.5% of Chile's population.
