Latinos are the largest minority group in the United States, with about 57.5 million people, accounting for 17.4% of the national population, mainly in mexican american. In 2065,438+07, the Mexican population living in the United States was about 34.6 million, accounting for 65,438+065,438+0.22% of the American population.

Latin Americans are not necessarily Spanish. When the Spanish invaded the area, Latins were called Latins and were born with the locals.

The full name of Hispanic in the United States is "Hispanic and Hispanic Americans". In fact, unlike the Spanish, they are a mixture of European whites and Indians. So in the era of racial discrimination, Americans have always regarded them as colored people. Among these self-defined Latin Americans, people from southwestern States, especially those bordering Mexico, have the most Native American ancestry. But even these Hispanics have regional differences, which seem to reflect the history of immigration and integration. For example, some Latin Americans have no discernible indigenous origin, while others have as much as 50% indigenous origin.

The habits of southern European countries such as Spain and Portugal are different from those of Britain. When I moved to the United States in the early days, I intermarried with the local residents in some areas, and there was almost no concept of apartheid. Therefore, in Latin America ruled by Spain, the descendants of Spain and Portugal quickly merged with the local aborigines and formed a new Indo-European nation. There are even black hybrids in this country. There are also many times more Chinese-Portuguese hybrids in Macao than Chinese-English hybrids in Hong Kong.
