'''White Latin Americans'''<ref name="WLA">The term "White Latin American" has been occasionally used for the commonalities of the different white groups in Latin America. For examples, see ''[http://www.thirdworldtraveler.com/Latin_America/Torture_Repression_COTP.html Repression: the recognition of human rights]'', page 15 excerpted from the book ''Cry of the People: The struggle for human rights in Latin America and the Catholic Church in conflict with US policy'', by Penny Lernoux, Penguin Books, 1980, paper; or ''[http://www.adelinotorres.com/americalatina/Mario%20Olivares%20e%20Cezar%20Guedes_Globaliza%C3%A7ao%20na%20America%20Latina_INGLES.pdf Globalization Dynamics in Latin America: South Cone and Iberian Investments]'', Mario Gómez Olivares, Department of Economy,
ISEG/UTL, and Cezar Guedes, Departament of Economy, Federal Rural University of Rio de Janeiro.</ref> are the [[White people|white]] population of [[Latin America]]. They are descendants of 16th to 19th century colonial-era settlers and of post-independence immigrants. The settlers were mostly [[Spanish people|Spanish]] and [[Portuguese people|Portuguese]], the post-independence immigrants were mostly [[Italians|Italian]]. Other large sources of immigrants were [[Spain]], [[Portugal]], [[Germany]], [[Poland]], [[France]], [[Lebanon]], and the [[British Isles]]. Smaller numbers came from various other [[Europe]]an and [[Middle East]]ern countries. The immigrants came principally in the late decades of the nineteenth and early decades of the twentieth centuries. Some twelve million people arrived in [[South America]] alone in this period, although many returned or re-migrated to other countries, including the [[United States]] and [[Canada]]. The largest group in the region,<ref name="CIA">{{cite web | title=Field Listing - Ethnic groups | publisher=[[Central Intelligence Agency]] | url =https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/fields/2075.html | work =CIA World Factbook | accessdate = 2007-08-25}}</ref> white Latin Americans number approximately 190 million, or one-third of the total population of nearly 580 million in 2008.

==History==
[[Image:Map-Latin America.png|thumb|250px|Latin America]]
More than one and a half million Portuguese and Spaniards settled in their American colonies during the [[European colonization of the Americas|colonial period]].<ref>{{cite web | title=L’emigració dels europeus cap a Amèrica| url =http://www.edualter.org/material/vld/amlat13.pdf | accessdate = 2007-11-26}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |
url = http://www.ibge.gov.br/brasil500/portugueses.html |
title=Presença portuguesa: de colonizadores a imigrantes |
accessdate = 2007-11-26
}}</ref> Small numbers of other [[European ethnic groups|Europeans]] also settled, usually as a reward for military service to Spain or Portugal.

For the region as a whole, the number of [[Latin American revolutions|post-independence]] immigrants far surpassed that of settlers during the colonial period.<ref name=britsa/> [[Argentina]] and [[Uruguay]] were "inundated" with European immigrants, so that in the early 20th century [[Buenos Aires]] had a larger proportion of European-born population than did [[New York City]]. Argentina received more than half of the 11-12 million immigrants to South America in this time.<ref name="britsa">{{cite web | first= | last= | coauthors= | title=South America: Postindependence overseas immigrants | date= | publisher= | url =http://www.britannica.com/eb/article-41807/South-America | work =Encyclopædia Britannica | pages = | accessdate = 2007-11-26 | language = }}</ref> In [[Brazil]], the most populous country in the region, the effect was consequently not as great, but the number of immigrants was large, at more than 4 million.

===Admixture===
Since the European [[Colonialism|colonization]], the evolution of Latin America's population is embedded in a long and widespread history of intermixing, so that many White Latin Americans have [[Indigenous peoples of the Americas|Amerindian]] and/or [[sub-Saharan Africa]]n and/or [[Asian people|Asian]] ancestry. However, intermixing is not exclusive to the region, of course, and the white race is nowhere a "pure race": pure races do not exist, and evidently never have.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.physanth.org/positions/race.html |title=AAPA Statement on Biological Aspects of Race |accessdate=2008-01-25 |publisher=American Association of Physical Anthropologists |date=1996}}</ref> For example, a 2004 study of [[White American]]s, which showed that up to 30% of them have between 2% and 20% Sub Saharan African and or Native American admixture, similar to the ratio of white Latin Americans.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://backintyme.com/essays/?p=5 |title=Backintyme Essays » Blog Archive » Afro-European Genetic Admixture in the United States}}</ref>

Under the [[casta]] system of colonial Latin America, a person of mixed European and Amerindian ancestry would legally and automatically regain their ''[[Pureza de sangre#Spanish colonies|limpieza de sangre]]'' (lit. "purity of blood") and be classified as [[Criollo (people)|criollo]] with others in that category (a designation denoting "pure" Spaniards born in the Americas), if they were of one-eighth or less Amerindian ancestry. These would be the offspring of a [[castizo]] (1/4th Amerindian and 3/4th Spanish) with a Spaniard or a criollo (who may himself have been mixed).<ref name="HC">{{cite web | first=María Elena | last=Martínez | coauthors= | title=The Black Blood of New Spain: Limpieza de Sangre, Racial Violence, and Gendered Power in Early Colonial Mexico | date= | publisher= | url =http://www.historycooperative.org/cgi-bin/justtop.cgi?act=justtop&url=http://www.historycooperative.org/journals/wm/61.3/martinez.html | work =History Cooperative | pages = | accessdate = 2007-08-25 | language = }}</ref>

In practice, many castizos did themselves also [[subversive]]ly purchase their Whiteness all over Latin America, for a steep price,<ref>{{cite book |author=Frank W. Sweet |title=Legal History of the Color Line: The Rise And Triumph of the One-drop Rule |publisher=Backintyme |location= |year= |pages=215-235 |isbn=0-939479-23-0 |oclc= |doi=}}</ref> with relevant "''probanzas de limpieza de sangre''" records altered, consolidating themselves within the lawfully white population. Additionally, at least in the parts of Latin America under the jurisdiction of the [[Viceroyalty of New Spain]] (from the modern [[Southwest United States]] plus [[Florida]], all of modern [[Mexico]] then down as far south as the southern border of modern [[Costa Rica]], as well as [[Puerto Rico]], [[Cuba]], and the [[Dominican Republic]]), officials in the late 16th century did actually decide "to grant limpieza certification to those who had no more than a fourth of native ancestry (called castizos)."<ref name="HC"/>

==Populations==
The largest White population in Latin America is found in [[Brazil]], with 93.1 million whites out of 190 million total Brazilians, a ratio of 49.7%.<ref name="PNAD 2005">{{cite web |title=PNAD |date=2006 |url=http://www.ibge.gov.br/home/estatistica/populacao/trabalhoerendimento/pnad2006/brasilpnad2006.pdf |language=Portuguese |accessdate=2007-09-14 }}</ref> The CIA figure is 53.7%, or 102 million.<ref name="CIA"/> [[Argentina]], with a population of 40 million is 97% White, the largest percentage in Latin America, and indeed, in the Americas.

[[Mexico]] has the third largest White population, with over 16 million. The smallest White population in Latin America is in [[Honduras]], with only 1% White, approximately 75,000 people.
Chile, Costa Rica, and Guatemala have censuses which identify both Whites and [[Mestizos]] (people of mixed White and [[Indigenous peoples of the Americas|Amerindian]] ancestry) in one category, so the exact percentage of Whites in those countries is undetermined or unknown.

===Central America===
====Belize====
{{flagicon|Belize}} [[Belize]]

The exact percentage of white Belizeans is unknown because the Belizean census does not report separate numbers for whites and they are combined with the percentage of the people categorized as “other”, 9.7%. Most white Belizeans are descendants of [[criollo (people)|criollos]], the Latin American-born Spanish settlers (the first European settlers in Belize), who also made the mestizo majority in the country, and also Spanish refugees who escaped Franco’s rule. Since Belize has been a [[British overseas territories|British overseas territory]], few but significant number of pure-blooded descendants of British settlers appeared, even most British got out after independence. Other white settlers came, the most important are German [[Mennonite]]s, [[white American]]s, and [[Arab people|Arabs]] from Middle East.

[[Image:DeutscheClub.JPG|thumb|right|Founding members of the Deutsche Club in Nicaragua.]]
White Nicaraguans make up 17%, about 1 million, of the Nicaraguan population.<ref name="NI"/> The majority of White Nicaraguans are of [[Spanish people|Spanish]], [[German people|German]], [[Italian people|Italian]], [[Portuguese people|Portuguese]] and [[French people|French]] ancestry. In the 1800s Nicaragua experienced several waves of immigration, primarily from [[Europe]]. In particular, families from [[Germany]], [[Italy]], [[Spain]], [[France]] and [[Belgium]] immigrated to Nicaragua, mostly to the departments in the Central and Pacific region. As a result, the Northern cities of [[Estelí]], [[Jinotega]] and [[Matagalpa]] have significant fourth generation [[Germans]]. They established many agricultural businesses such as coffee and sugar cane plantations, and also newspapers, hotels and banks. The [[Jewish Nicaraguan|Jews of Nicaragua]] are descendants of [[Ashkenazi Jews]] from Eastern Europe.

Also present is a small [[Middle East]]ern-Nicaraguan community of [[Demographics of Syria|Syrian]]s, [[Armenians]], [[Palestinian Nicaraguan]]s, and [[Lebanese people|Lebanese]] Nicaraguans with a total population of about 30,000.

White Cubans make up about 65%<ref name=CUB/><ref>{{cite web | title=Cuba; Ethnic Makeup | url =http://dev.prenhall.com/divisions/hss/worldreference/CU/people.html | work =The Financial Times World Desk Reference | accessdate = 2007-12-08}}</ref> of Cuba's total population with the majority being of diverse [[Spanish people|Spanish]] descent, mainly from the settlers but also from the more recent influx of exiles from [[Spain under Franco|Franco's Spain]].
The ancestry of white Cubans comes primarily from [[Spain]], with many others being of [[French people|French]], [[Portuguese people|Portuguese]], [[German Cuban|German]], [[Italian people|Italian]], and [[Russia]]n descent <ref>[http://www.cubagenweb.org/french/index.htm#refugees Etat des propriétés rurales appartenant à des Français dans l'île de Cuba] from http://www.cubagenweb.org</ref>.

During the 18th, 19th and early part of the 20th century, large waves of [[Canarian people|Canarians]], [[Catalan people|Catalans]], [[Andalusian people|Andalusians]], [[Castilian people|Castilians]], and [[Galician people|Galicians]] emigrated to Cuba. Also, minor but significant ethnic influx is derived from diverse peoples from [[Middle East]]ern nations such as [[Lebanon]] and [[History of the Jews in Cuba|Jews]]; however, not all Cuban Jews are from the Middle East, as many are [[Sephardic Jews]].
Between 1900 and 1930, close to a million Spaniards arrived from Spain; many of these and their descendants left after Castro's [[Communism|communist]] [[Cuban Revolution|regime took power]].

====Dominican Republic====

====Haiti====
{{HAI}}

Most of the white Haitians are descendants of [[French people|French]] settlers that settled on the [[Hispaniola]], although most French stepped out of the nation after its freedom. The white community in [[Saint-Domingue]] numbered 32,000 in 1789.<ref>[http://chnm.gmu.edu/revolution/chap8a.html Slavery and the Haitian Revolution]</ref> There are also white Haitians that are descendants of [[Danish people|Danes]], [[German people|Germans]], [[Italian people|Italians]], [[Lebanese people|Lebanese]], [[Polish people|Poles]], [[Portuguese people|Portuguese]], [[Russian people|Russians]], and [[Syria]]ns. The country has also small numbers of Haitians of Spanish descent, who are the descendants of the first settlers of the whole Hispaniola before French claimed Haiti.

====Puerto Rico====
{{PRI}}{{main|Puerto Rican people}}{{main|Demographics of Puerto Rico}}
[[Image:Benicio del Toro.JPG|thumb|right|100px|[[Benicio del Toro]]]]

White Puerto Ricans of European, mostly [[Spanish people|Spanish]] descent, are said to comprise the majority. In the year 1899, one year after the U.S took control of the island, 61.8% of people identified as [[White people|White]]. For the first time in fifty years, the [[United States Census, 2000|2000, United States Census]] asked people to define their race. One hundred years later, the total has risen to 80.5% (3,064,862), one percent more than reported in 1950.<ref>[http://www.ssc.wisc.edu/cde/demsem/loveman-muniz.pdf Puerto Rico's History on race]</ref> One possible reason for Puerto Rico's high percentage of European-descent population is the fact that many of the Puerto Ricans of African or Native American descent left the island in waves of migration.

From the beginning of the twentieth century American observers remarked on the "surprising preponderance of the white race" on the island. One travel writer called Puerto Rico ''"the whitest of the Antilles"''. In a widely distributed piece, a geologist, wrote that the island was "notable among the West Indian group for the reason that its preponderant popula­tion is of the white race." In a more academic book he reiterated that "Porto Rico, at least, has not become [[Africanization|Africanized]].<ref>[http://www.mona.uwi.edu/liteng/courses/e21h_2007/documents/santiago/Neither%20Black%20nor%20White-The%20Representation%20of%20Puerto%20Rican%20Racial%20Identity.RTF Representation of racial identity among puerto ricans and in the u.s. mainland]</ref>

During the 19th century, hundreds of [[Corsican immigration to Puerto Rico|Corsica]]n, [[French immigration to Puerto Rico|French]], [[Lebanese people|Lebanese]], and [[Portugal|Portuguese]] families, along with large numbers of immigrants from Spain (mainly from [[Catalonia]], [[Asturias]], [[Galicia (Spain)|Galicia]], the [[Balearic Islands]], [[Andalusia]], and the [[Canary Islands]]) and numerous Spanish loyalists from Spain's former colonies in South America, arrived in Puerto Rico. Other settlers have included [[Irish immigration to Puerto Rico|Irish]], [[Scotland|Scots]], [[German immigration to Puerto Rico|Germans]], [[Italian people|Italians]], and thousands others who were granted land from Spain during the ''Real Cedula de Gracias de 1815'' ([[Royal Decree of Graces of 1815]]), which allowed European Catholics to settle in the island with a certain amount of free land. After the [[United States]] took possession of Puerto Rico after the [[Spanish-American War]], [[White American]]s began settling in Puerto Rico, continuing to the present day. Spanish refugees arrived in Puerto Rico during [[Francisco Franco]]’s rule in Spain.

===South America===
==== Argentina ====
{{ARG}}{{main|White Argentine}}

White Argentines make up 97% of [[Argentina]]'s population, or around 39 million people.<ref name="AR"/> [[Whites]] are found in all areas of the country. White Argentines mainly are descendants of [[Immigration to Argentina|immigrants]] who came from Europe in the late 19th century. Most of these immigrants came from [[Spain]] and [[Italy]]. Other whites are Germans, Dutch, French, Scandinavians (mostly Swedes), Jews, Poles and other East Europeans, and Arabs.
{{Expand-section|date=June 2008}}

====Bolivia====
{{BOL}}

White Bolivians make up 15% of the nation's population, or up to 1.4 million.<ref name="BL"/> The white population consists mostly of ''[[Criollo (people)|criollo]]s'', which consist of families of relatively unmixed [[Spanish people|Spanish]] ancestry from the [[History of Bolivia|Spanish colonists]] and also Spanish refugees fleeing the 1936—1939 Spanish Civil War. These have formed much of the aristocracy since independence. Other smaller groups within the white population are [[German people|Germans]], who founded the national airline [[Lloyd Aereo Boliviano]], as well as [[Italian people|Italians]], [[United States of America|Americans]], [[Basque people|Basques]], [[Lebanese people|Lebanese]], [[Croats]], [[Russian people|Russians]], [[Polish people|Polish]], and other minorities, many of whose members descend from families that have lived in Bolivia for several generations.

====Brazil====
{{BRA}}{{main|White Brazilian}}

According to the 2005 census, White Brazilians make up 49.7% of Brazil's population, or 93.1 million people.<ref name="PNAD 2005"/> Figures in the CIA World Factbook put whites at 53.7%, or 102 million.<ref name="CIA"/> Whites are found in the entire territory of Brazil, although the main concentrations are in the South and Southeastern parts of the country.
By the 1800s, close to one million Europeans had left for Brazil, most of them colonial settlers from [[Portugal]]. The immigration boom occurred between the mid-19th and mid-20th centuries, when nearly five million Europeans immigrated to Brazil, most of them [[Italians]], [[Portuguese people|Portuguese]], [[Germans]], [[Spaniards]], [[Polish people|Poles]], [[Lithuanians]], [[Ukrainians]] and [[Ashkenazi Jews]]. The country has also a large [[Lebanese people|Lebanese]] diaspora among other [[Levant]] Arabs.

====Chile====
{{CHI}}

The Chilean population is approximately 30% to 35% white, with predominantly white [[Mestizo]]s further numbered at 65%.<ref name=UC/> These two figures are normally combined, so that Chile's population is classified as 95% white and white-Amerindian (mestizo) or (Castizo), 3% Amerindian, and 2% other.<ref name="UC"/> Whites are mostly [[Spanish people|Spanish]] in origin (mainly [[Castilian people|Castilian]]s, [[Andalusian people|Andalusian]]s and [[Basque people|Basques]]). The more notable other groups are [[Italian people|Italians]], [[Irish people|Irish]], [[French people|French]], [[Germans]], [[English people|English]], [[Scottish people|Scots]], [[Croats]], and [[Palestinians]].

Most still hold large amounts of lands, mainly in the northern ''Sierra'', and live in [[Quito]] or [[Guayaquil]]. There is also a large number of white people in [[Cuenca, Ecuador|Cuenca]], a city in the southern [[Andes]] of Ecuador, due to the arrival of Frenchmen in the area, in order to measure the arc of the Earth. Cuenca, [[Loja, Ecuador|Loja]], and the [[Galápagos Islands|Galápagos]] attracted German immigration during the early 20th century, and the Galápagos also had a small [[Norwegian people|Norwegian]] fishing community until they were asked to leave.

====Paraguay====
{{PAR}}

Ethnically, culturally, and socially, Paraguay has one of the most [[homogeneous]] populations in [[South America]]. The exact percentage of the white Paraguayan population is not known because the Paraguayan census does not include racial or ethnic identification, save for the indigenous population,<ref>[http://www.dgeec.gov.py/Censos/Imagenes/Cuestionario%20Censal.pdf?PHPSESSID=296abb7abfa015f8241d208aeaed71f4 Paraguayan Census form]</ref> which reached 1.7% of the country's total in the last census in 2002.<ref>[http://www.dgeec.gov.py/Publicaciones/Biblioteca/censo_indigena/Capitulo%201.pdf II CENSO NACIONAL INDÍGENA DE POBLACIÓN Y VIVIENDAS 2002. Pueblos Indígenas del Paraguay. Resultados Finales]</ref> Other sources estimate the other groups. The mestizo population is estimated at 95% by the CIA World Factbook, and all other groups at 5%.<ref name="PRA">{{cite web | title=Paraguay: People; Ethnic groups| url =https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/geos/pa.html#People | work =CIA World Factbook | accessdate = 2007-11-26}}</ref> Thus, Whites and the remaining groups (Asians, Afro-Paraguayans, others, if any) combine for approximately 3.3% of the total population. The majority of whites are of Spanish descent with others being of Italian, German, or of other European descent.

The only southern city with a significant population is [[Arequipa]]. To the north [[Cajamarca (city)|Cajamarca]] and [[San Martín Region]] are also places with a strong Spanish influence and ethnic presence.

Revision as of 22:51, 10 October 2008

Guitar Hero World Tour is the fourth major release in the Guitar Hero series of music video games.

Downloadable content

In addition to custom songs, players of the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3, and Wii versions will be able to download new licensed songs for the game. This is the first game in the Guitar Hero series to support download functionality on the Wii.[3] Wii users will be able to store downloaded songs on either the Wii's internal memory or on an SD Card in a "Rock Archive," and then will be able to add songs to playlists from this.[4] When playing tracks stored on an SD Card, each song is automatically copied to a "content cache" on the Wii's flash memory for play and then deleted after the song is finished. This will require about 200 free memory blocks on the Wii.[5]
