- What if Hispanic America became an independent country? It's Hispanic heritage month, and I think it's time to talk about a subject that is quickly making headway in Southwest American politics, regarding the future of the Hispanic-majority areas of the United States in an alternate history (alternate future?) style video.
Obviously anyone who knows me could tell that I don't support such a concept, but I'm merely exploring the possibility. Hope you find the video interesting and learn something new. Let me know your thoughts on this hypothetical scenario and thanks for watching!

Me: Yeah! Seems so peaceful around here.
Also me: Mestizos and Amerindians rule! White people (white Caucasians, white Asians and yellow Asians) are batshit crazy!
Lol XD

Kid, Why makeup a lot of bullshit? I checked your stats and most are wrong. Going by the crap you upload, you seem to have a big jealousy problem with Mexicans. The poverty rate in Mexico is at 43.6, and the highest poverty is found in states with the highest Indian and black citizens, like Veracruz, Oaxaca, Tabasco, Chiapas and Campeche. Black Americans Join gangs in larger numbers then Hispanics and Graduation rates nationwide are black students graduated at a rate of 69 percent; Hispanics graduated at 73 percent; whites graduated at a rate of 86 percent.
Speaking Spanish at home doesn't mean you're not "integrated" :/
Know what i hate? :/ the shit in the cences crap saying we talk Spanish at home when we actually speak it in public too
Yea not to mention how the more generations after immigration the less Spanish they know
@@felixxdenolo6793 this was true before globalization, now u.s.a. is on it's way to become a bilingual country, wich is ok, it's atrend all around the world, mainly with english
@@matirei3266 usa was always bilingual when german migrate in the us they speaked german when italian migrate in us they speaked italian etc....
Land is cheap in Africa, just start communities
The problem I have with most non Latino/Hispanic is that they thing everyone is Mexican. No one in Latin America besides Mexicans eat Tacos. Mexican culture is completely different to Argentinean culture. Argentineans don't learn America English they learn British English. And Countries like Paraguay have Spanish and guarani as an official language. Also the majority of the undocumented immigrants that are arriving to the USA are from El Salvador, Guatemala, and Honduras. Not Mexico.
diego suarez Or All slavs being Russian. For Western Europe.
Waffen SS you to waffen go back to ur main land Scotland or wherever ur grandpa came from. Wasn’t it u who was saying they got German ancestry?
The falklan islands isn't Argentina
My problem with mestizos is they think everyone in "latin" america accepts a eurocentric term such as hispanic or latino. Mainly mexican are highly uneducated on the indigenous population. I speak quichua thats not latin nor hispanic.
DJ Trevi Hard for mestizos to claim any land when they denied their indigenous side for centuries. whine but now yall from spain to them. Mestizos want to pretend they are from spain 100% but spain wont give them home cuz they dont even look spanish now mexicans are without a homeland. Navajo land got benefits and rights and they are never told that its not their home cuz they never gave up their native tongue. tough titties. not conquistadors fault cuz if that were true castilian would be the only language in Spain. Yep spanish is not a language its a nationality because catalan, galician, valencian etc. Are languages that are spanish. Oh they still fight to keep their language Til this day, watch the riots online, doing this even though they still officially apart of spain. What excuse for mestizos? plenty of videos of these "pure" latin people denying indigenous cultural rights so keep blaming the conquistadors when its mestizos shutting the door on us.
Hey guys, happy Hispanic heritage month and thanks for joining! For alternate history (or alternate future) videos like this please let me know whether you're more interested in the history, the politics or just want me to focus on the numbers.
Please do a video on Dravidian people of India nd Pakistan
"hispanic" is not an invention of USA, here in spain we commonly use it like with the hispanic day and more "Dia de la Hispanidad "(this 12 of october btw :D).
the term itself it's a reminder of our cultural union with our old colonies.
latino by the other hand its an invention of the french and the british to cut this union with us, by the +1800's .
that would be racist :/ (joke)
Masaman hi
Masaman, can you do a video of the situation in Catalonia?
I see no problem with these guys, they only want to literally make Mexico *great* again.
then fix the drug problem.
@@warthunder9155 it’s actually the South American countries bringing in the drugs into Mexico

@@warthunder9155 no they mostly come from people who migrant from South America into Mexico
@@cookieboylover1360 Both of my statements are still true.
US troops in ww2 came from france and went into germany even though they originally came from the US.
On top of that Mexico needs to fix the drug problem.
Living in Texas all my life, I have a hard time even thinking of Mexico as another country. Considering a Mexican a foreigner is for me a bit of a stretch. They have been and always will be part of Texas culture.
@Paul Tello JAJAJAJAJAJAJA all the texan culture is based on Mexican culture so stfu
@Paul Tello In 1824 Mexico’s authoritarian ruler Agustín de Iturbide enacted a colonization law authorizing the Mexican federal government to allow legal immigration into Texas. This statute allowed foreigners to gain title to land.
Mexican liberals argued in favor of allowing foreigners to immigrate. This would satisfy multiple objectives, including promoting economic growth, increasing the number of males available to defend the country, and bringing new capital and skills into the country to replace those lost when many Spaniards were expelled or chose to leave the country.
The process for gaining an official land title was expensive and time-consuming, and many residents chose not to have the land surveyed or complete the application process. The Mexican law required immigrants to practice Catholicism and stressed that foreigners needed to learn Spanish and all people wishing to live in Texas were expected to report to the nearest Mexican authority for permission to settle.
Many Americans immigrated to Mexico, where land was cheaper. A few Americans who had become naturalized Mexicans settled in Texas during that time. Most of the immigrants came from the southern United States. Immigration of United States had begun to accelerate rapidly. The new population was not fully assimilated and by 1826, approximately 3,000 Americans from the United States were living illegally in Texas. Most of the immigrants came from the southern United States. Many were slave owners, and most brought with them significant prejudices against other races, attitudes often applied to the Tejanos. Most Anglo Americans tried to isolate themselves from Mexicans.
By 1830, Texas had a population of 7,000 foreign-born residents, with only 3,000 Mexican nationals. In regard to slavery, influential settler Stephen F. Austin, who reasoned that the success of his colonies needed slave labor and the economics it produced to lure more whites to the area. Anglos from the United States soon vastly outnumbered the Tejanos.
Mexican authorities became increasingly concerned about the stability of the region.The colonies teetered at the brink of revolt in 1829, after Mexico abolished slavery. In response, President Anastasio Bustamante implemented the Laws of April 6, 1830, which, among other things, prohibited further immigration to Texas from the United States, increased taxes, and reiterated the ban on slavery. The law explicitly banned any further immigration from the United States to Texas and any new slaves. The new Law rescinded all empresario contracts that had not been completed and prohibited Americans from settling in any Mexican territory adjacent to the United States. Secretary of State Lucas Alamán, who wrote the 1830 law, said that "Texas will be lost for this Republic if adequate measures to save it are not taken. Law of April 6, 1830 under President Anastasio Bustamante was issued because the Mexican state of Texas was in danger of being annexed by the United States. New issued settlement contracts were brought under federal rather than state control. Provisions of the law were designed to encourage Mexican citizens to move from the interior to Texas. Mexicans who agreed to relocate to Texas would get good land, free transportation to Texas, and some financial assistance. Convicts would be sent to Texas to build fortifications and roads to stimulate trade.
The lack of a formal policy had not stopped many immigrants. Settlers simply circumvented or ignored the laws. A number of people had left the United States to settle in the Mexican northern provinces.The ban and other measures did not stop US citizens from migrating to Texas by the thousands, and by 1834, it was estimated that over 30,000 Anglos lived in Texas, compared to only 7,800 Mexican-born residents.
Mexican authorities noted that slave reforms passed by the state were being ignored. By the end of 1835, almost 5,000 enslaved Africans and African Americans lived in Texas, making up 13 percent of the non-Indian population (The Mexican rules were widely disregarded and slavery remained in Texas until the end of the American Civil War).The attitudes of the immigrants prompted the Mexican-American War on February 2nd 1848, in which Mexico lost almost 55 percent of its territory to the United States drawing a bullshit line trough territory that used to be nothing but Mexico and some of these territories we know currently as Arizona,NewMexico,Texas,Nevada and of course California. All of those states used to be absolutely Mexico! so now you have people who are indigenous here who were made foreigners on there own land.
Mexicans form part of the U.S. history. We have the right to be in this land.
America is not a country it's a continent.
I don't know what's more criminal; crossing over a borderline of a country looking for the economic opportunity that allows you to work and earn or... going to another land across an ocean, taking over land killing &pushing its native people into concentrated areas, creating a trail of tears, deceiving other people of their true intentions and really trying to collect all these peoples gold to take it to their royal families killing"civilizing" them as they settle &conquer, or also bringing along a group of people who they used to perform hard labor of fields with no pay other than food,roof,lynching,shooting,cutting,burning!!!
cri cro yeah your fucking stupid because Spain ruled Texas far longer than Mexico
@@sierra5713 Do u honestly think Apaches, Piutes, Navajos, Chumash, Hopi, and other tribes living in the present US southwest would have casinos today had their lands remained under Mexico's authority??
@Jose Stevenson . I agree!
0:40 The term "Mexican" for Latinos goes back to the time when the American southwest was a part of Mexico and the inhabitants were actually Mexican nationals. Back in those days if you ran into a Hispanic 99% of the time they were Mexican, so the term stuck. Obviously today it doesn't make as much sense, but often language is very slow to change.
nah, it's just easier/more comfortable to put different people in one group. In my country, we refer to muslims as "Turks", it's easier.
In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the dominant Anglo-Americans relegated the Hispanics living in New Mexico to second-class social status, due to unfamiliarity and prejudice. Some of these "Anglos" were ethnocentric, deprecating Hispanic/Mexican culture and questioning the people's fitness for democracy. Some claim, in response, they constructed a "Spanish American" identity in an early instance of cultural citizenship (expressing Americanism through ethnic identity)
Around 1920, the term "Spanish-American" replaced "Mexican" in polite society and in political debate. The new term served both the interests of both groups. For Spanish speakers, it evoked Spain, not Mexico, recalling images of a romantic colonial past and suggesting a future of equality in Anglo-dominated America. For Anglos, on the other hand, it was a useful term that upgraded the state's image, for the old image as a "Mexican" land suggested the violence and disorder associated with that country's civil war in the early 20th century. This had discouraged capital investment and set back the statehood campaign. The new term gave the impression that "Spanish Americans" belonged to a true "American" political culture, making the established order appear all the more democratic.
New Mexico contributed some 17,000 men to the armed services during World War I. Thousands more from the state fought for the Allies during World War II.
World War I gave the Hispanics the opportunity to demonstrate American citizenship by participating in the war effort.
New Mexico proportionately suffered the loss of more servicemen than any other state in the nation in ww2. Their wartime contributions improved the conditions of minority citizenship for Nuevomexicanos but did not entirely eliminate social inequality.
R6bravo my grandparents are Hispanos from New Mexico. Not Mexicans but Spanish.

Hey Mason, my name is Jose. I’m a huge history buff and your videos are always very informative. I love the range of topics you cover.
This story in particular was very interesting. I’m Mestizo. My mom is from Culiacan Sinaloa and my Dad is from Durango. I was born in Compton California. At school we were mainly taught US history. Civil War, WWII, Civil Rights Movement, etc. it wasn’t till later in life, after high school, that I read a books called, Broken Spear. Which goes into great detail of the downfall of Tenochtitlan.
Long story short: your videos are the first I seen than account for history without any bias point of view and I thank you for that because there are a lot of toxic people out there. Any way, thanks for the video and can’t wait to see more of your content. 👍🏽

I am a proud American. Ancestors have been in this country (not including my First Nations ancestors) since 1600. And because I have some Spanish ancestors I'm suppose to be in the same category as some one who migrated from Mexico and/or South America even though my ancestors were here before the states were formed. People forget Spain had this land for hundreds of years before America was even formed...and in turn they had Europeans, not just spaniards, settle the land. I refuse to fill out those RACE/ETHNICITY forms because they are trying to limit us and fit us in one category and we all know life isn't like that so forget labels. I'm not going to deny the rest of my European ancestry that would be doing a disservice to ALL of my ancestors and denying myself.
Very true, it's like saying Italians and french people should also be described as "Latino."
Southern Europeans, different than northern/Nordic Europeans, central Europeans, and Eastern Slavic Europeans.
Very true! That is how many Latin Americans and other spanish countries outside of the Americas feel when they are put in a Mexican category. And the real Hispanics are from Spain in Europe.
Same for me, I have Spanish, German and probably french ancestores, I'm not gonna fill out that stupid thing
This was awesome! Glad to know there are others who think of these things, and just happy to have someone else's opinion on the matter :)
Uninformed comment
I approve of this comment
Lmao
Educated reply.
You chihuahua
Reactionary comment that makes things worse
Wait, so Latinos are people who originate from a Latin American country, and a Latin American country is any country that speaks a Latin language in America. According to the Canada act, French and English are both equally considered official languages in Canada. This means one of Canada's official languages is French, which is a Latin language, which makes Canada Latin American by definition. Not only that, because Canada is Latin American, that means Canadians are by definition Latinos. What about them apples?
They actually are by technicality. However, the latino/latinoamericano demonym is usually applied to Hispanic countries and Brazil, but ironically it was the French who started trying to culturally unify the Romance-speaking countries with the word "latino".
Grünes Licht Paraguay is a South American country that have two official languages the Spanish and guarani(a native language) and most of the population speaks guarani only in the frontier with Bolivia people speak Spanish why are they consider latinos?
Medio Litro in Quebec my friend in Quebec.
Just Quebec, Anglo Canadians dont count.
@@another90daystochangethis34 Very good point. To this day, there is a league of "Latin" countries which has its headquarters in Paris.
I live in Houston, TX but am from North Carolina. Recently, I was telling one of my North Carolina friends about my trips to South Texas and how it really does feel like cultural Mexico begins closer to the Nueces River instead of all the way down to the Rio Grande. Couldn't help but notice that you made this observation as well. I need to make a valley trip soon now that I have been practicing my Spanish. Plenty of opportunities to practice in Houston as well.

i really like the few theoretical scenario videos that you have made so far. interesting food for thought, for sure.
Hispanic is my city
This comment is actually really underrated
Masaman Hey u replied, thank u 👊
LMAOOOOO
New Spain (Mexico) used to reach from Anchorage, Alaska down to Santiago, Argentina
Interesting information and thought provoking. You are a master at your craft Masaman.
Thanks so much!
Always enjoy your videos! Keep it up.
Nice video. I think you could use some sound foam to mask off the background noises. Happy hispanic heritage month :)
Well, you have to do an independent European America next now.
vogelszijnlelijk Not yet... We need to have a video on an independent Amerindian nation...
Martian American?
Jethro Piano An independent Native American country in America. Now that would truly be a sight to behold.
We already have that, it's called the US before 1960
Masaman I know that there used to be independent Amerindian countries (or civilisations) pre-Columbus era. An actual independent country today will be cool, and the kind of closest thing resembling this scenario is probably Bolivia with its predominately Amerindian population...
Things are changing. I live in the Caribbean. In my work went for a training in California, the instructor was Mexican and didn't speak Spanish. People Identify me as Mexican and I am not. This like saying that All orientals are Chinese.
You're probably White-Hispanic.
I enjoy your channel very much. Keep up the great work!
great video! have you done one yet on a hypothetical Irish-American country? german would be cool as well. thanks again
I like this hypothetical exercise, probably what I missed a little, was the place on the world of this region. Like gdp per capita, or the place among richest countries or population ranking, etc. Anyways, good job.
Thanks! I'm a huge fan of the numbers, but I thought people might not find that as interesting.
Masaman but it is interesting!

Outstanding video Mason!
We should ditch the hispanic/Latino term in our census and just replace it with mestizo
yeah, what does that do for non- Mestizo Hispanics?
they can choose either white, black, asian, native american, or multiple ones if they're mixed . :)
diego suarez choose the white, black, Asian, native, or more than one race category
Jizldiedizl B well that's stupid.
Reality is that unless you do a DNA test, you're not going to know if if you're 50/50 or anything specific. Mestizo just means mix.
I'm Hispanic, and likely Mestizo (if you want to get specific) but I have no idea what % I am, but presume I'm more Euro than native as I'm a white Hispanic.
Maybe one day I'll get around to doing the DNA test since I'm curious.
I wanted to ask for a video about iberian etnic groups.But than I rememberd that right now it maybe isn't the best time to do a video about that.
I Love Your videos dude thanks for what You do!!!!
keep up the GREAT work
From the border you drew, this country would actually border the Navajo Nation, meaning you could have people speaking Spanish (or potentially English), and then walk 5 miles and have people speaking Navajo.
Mexico: es my venganza spanky
I suscribe to your channel! Great information!
Would you be willing to make a video on the development of native tribes from the Bering straight into North, Central, and South America?
9:35 I'm Mexican, typing this comment from Mexico City and I have to tell you that you're right when you say that "Hispanic" doesn't relate to race, but at this part of the video it seems that you think that only in the US Hispanic is used in that way and that the classification doesn't make sense, but you're wrong buddy.
Hispanic is anybody that was born in a Spanish speaking country, just as you said. Even Guinea Ecuatorial counts as Hispanic, even though is an African country. This is not only because the nation they live in speaks Spanish, but because their national culture is of Hispanic heritage. The Argentinians, the Uruguayans, the Costa Ricans are nations of mostly European descent, but they are Hispanic because of the language and because their culture is Hispanic. So if a Norweigan couple, for example, comes to my country and have their baby here and adopts the nationality, the child would be Hispanic. For us it makes all the sense in the world, you just have to be raised in a Hispanic country (that has the language and the culture) and you are considered Hispanic, and for me that's the beauty of it.
I find it so strange how people from the US find it hard to differentiate between race, ethnicity and nationality. I'm from Europe, and to me it seems like something that's so obvious. It must be due to the unique history the US has with race. In the US it seems like your identity is either white or not white.
Not true Ricky. Americans aren't as simple as you Europeans want to think we are.
I havnt mention anything about anyone being simple.....?
This is an interesting discussion and lots of opinions. I predicted many years ago the "Hispanic" areas will become "Autonomous Regions" at some time in the future. Many nations have these type of regions where they still receive benefits of the larger country but have more freedom in the region to have their separate laws and customs. The Philippines has the ARMM, Autonomous Region of Muslim Mindanao.
I love your work!

Great video keep up the good work.
I visited Spain twice before in my life given that i was born in the very central heart of Europe. My parents brought me over immigrated here to Colorado when i was very young so integration as a Caucasian European Christian birth but lived in the Colorado Rockies 90% the whole transition for me was extremely subtle to the point of unnoticeable effects from my perspective . But having had the pleasure of being to spain throughout the years growing up my family and I periodically went back for brief visits to Europe and Spain’s populace from my observation was very evident how white Madrid and Barcelona were to where coming back to visit from an American naturalized habitat with Anglo-Saxon Sekler origins was still surprising being amongst them in their own land of Espana.Had i not known better because of my European origins but still how Caucasian Spain was didn’t shock me but tourists never having any insite of European cultures as a whole would have flipped out especially if they were of not as much of the South American audience because obviously mass settlements of argentina brazil but mainly of Mexican origins though definitely would have been puzzled the least ! Ultimately 70%of Mexicans and Latin Americans are at least 50% natives and Caucasians. That’s true genetics snd i hate to say it as far as those people that really dislike either kind the truth is that i have no reason to invent any of this and I don’t have to ! In my honest opinion i think its a beautiful thing .
I'm an Hispanic American but Jesus Christ having one country of pure Hispanic Americans is a horrible idea. I'd much rather stick with good ole USA! God bless this nation!
Maththew ---- It would be totally boring. Race relations in this nation aren't nearly as bad as some influential people want them to be.
yep. glad you understand that and admit it at least lol
Yes! Very true! Just because the term "hispanic American" gets thrown out there, it does not mean Hispanics share the same culture. That is like if religions united: Ex. Jews and Islamic people uniting! Seriously!
Of course. Hispanic Americans are Latinos, but they do not belong to us, Latinos outside USA. We have the authentic culture, not the mishmash of Americanised Latinos that you have. They can't be right with us, just with their kind
Matthew Martinez
anglo saxon americans hate your ass dumb fuck they would throw you under the bus if it was up to them
Hey! Speak something about the history about the slav and germanic people in the regions of Misiones, in Argentina and southern Paraguay. They have an interesting mark in the region.
The use of the term "explosive" might be considered pejorative, brother MA; except that similar or greater "explosions" occurred with the Irish and German immigration in the first half of the 19C, and Italian and Jewish at the turn of the 19/20C, and E Asians, Hindic Indians, and Arabs right now. Still, u r A-1, and your graphics are always the best. Want to meet my daughter?
Would you consider French Canadians and the Acadian descended Cajuns Latino since they speak a Latin based language?
Technically... yes... but "Latino" is just such a convoluted and abstract term that it really makes no sense. Surely a French Canadian from Quebec has much more in common with Anglo Canadians or even Anglo Americans than someone from Argentina or Brazil.
Personally, I like to define Latin America as everywhere South of the US including the Guyanas and the Caribbean (although they aren't Spanish-speaking) as it's just more convenient and makes much more sense.
Here in Chile the term Latin America is mostly used to the Spanish, Portuguese and French speaking countries of the Americas and the Caribbean. So countries like Belize and Jamaica are not considered latin American countries here :p but term it's not used for ethnic groups, just for people from a certain countries.
If some place like Quebèc becomes independent here it would be considered from Latin America.
And I think that is the most correct way to use the term because someone from Guyana or Curazao has almost nothing to do with being latino
Masaman Brazil doesn't speak Spanish. Latino/ Latin American means American countries that speak a latin language so Brazil, Haiti, and other French speaking countries. Latin/o isn't the Spanish speaking club. Spanish isn't the new Latin. It's a produce OF Latin as you know.
Chief Wanga oh, I forgot that. But the people who speak spanish often don't understand english there. Idk how it is for the people who speak the creole language that also make a large percentage of the population
BushShamanOculus yes
I'm a native Californian of Anglo background. I've lived in areas that are majority Mexican/Mexican-American such as Salinas (about 70% Hispanic). Even with those concentrations they're not "Spanish speaking" areas. Much of the population may speak Spanish at home, but the language of government, commerce and education is English. I don't speak Spanish and not once did I find it to be a problem. Every office or business I go into I'm greeted in English, my workplace is English speaking, major media such as television and the newspaper and all public spaces are in English. About the only time they're in Spanish are small businesses catering to the Mexican population. So yeah, the fact the largest ethnic group is Mexican doesn't make it any less the United States.
Yeah it's not Québec at all
Very interesting thanks!
If Hispanic secession in South US were to happen, it would hugely motivate similar movements in the North of Mexico. They could even merge into a third country. That said, I guess South US Hispanics could be reluctant to unite because cartels (an issue the US is way more responsible than they think they are).
Mexico should allow the US to occupy it and fight off the cartels

I love your vidoes continue doing your job just as great you do now. I hope you would make a vidoe: Making a chart of what every region (like The horn of Africa, Southern Europe, Polynesia) of the world or some are mixed with. Some regions arent mixed with anything thats why i said some. Continue making great vidoes👍🏾
Thanks Funny Tv! I've dabbled with the idea of looking into the genetic history of each region of the planet, but it would be a truly massive project.
Debemos mantener nuestra cultura latina dentro Delos estados unidos si queremos ser respetado.
Hey Massaman. Nice one. Only one issue: saying that there is no equivalent of Latino/Hispanic outside the US is incorrect. The concept and the words are in no way exclusively American. The word Hispanic is from hispano, a Spanish word just like Latino is from latino in Spanish. They mean the same thing in Spanish as they do in English and they existed in Spanish before there was a need to say them in English. In fact there is no doubt that Hispanics/Latinos connect at a ethnolinguistic level just like, say, Arabic or English speakers might in some way. Maybe even more. Makes sense right? Anyway pls keep up the amazing work. I love your videos.
Great episode
1800's: americans invade Mexico
2000's: mexicans invade USA
Fair to me
That would never happen. I’m Mexican and love the USA and it’s people. We need to be united not divided. The best to end racism is to stop seeing as as they but instead of we.
Great channel
So excited that 50K is coming soon
11:30 listen to this part before commenting
Gringo is not a slur, it is a neutral word that just means American disregarding their ethnic origins.
A thought provoking video as usual.
One critique however, color TV was not invented in Mexico. What was invented was a competing color format to which was NOT adopted for wider usage due to its technical limitations.
Very good!
i don't think we would speak Spanish I think we would speak Spanglish.
I'm from Vegas, and hispanics are actually the majority here. Every race is kinda concentrated in neighborhoods, but technically they still outnumber everybody
0:35 I am not sure what to make of this image. You are speaking about Mexicans at this point, but that dance is from Bolivia. However, the video in general is about "Hispanics" so.... maybe it makes sense in another part of the video?
Have you thought of doing a video on the Amish? They could be considered an ethno religious groups. Greats videos fellow

Yeah, if the US, China and Russia fell the world would be a far better place
Love it!
One question that I have to ask and I've had no one asked this yet, why aren't Italians considered Latino? I mean shoot you have French speaking colonies that are considered non Iberian Latin how come Italians and not considered that their language is Latin to right?
Do a video about the turkic division between Caucasian and mongloid
Soon. You've been very patient my friend.
Masaman yes I have been asking for a long time my dear friend thanks for doing my request =)
Masaman I just hope you wont make any mistakes since it is a very sensitive topic amongst us Turks. Speaking of Turks from western Turkey, majority descends from Balkan Turks, Albanians and Bosniaks that fled or migrated to western Turkey. The Turks came from primarily Bulgarians and Macedonians, so we look European because of Albanians and Slavs, not Greeks. Also, the Greeks in Anatolia weren't ethnically Greek to begin with, they were native Anatolians like Lycaonians, Pisidians etc. that adopted the Greek identity and language after their conversion to Christianity.
Masaman I also want to say that genetic studies show all Turks have Turkic admixture, although the amount is low. Some people misread genetic studies and think it says only 10-15% of Turks are "real" Turks. It says all Turks have 10-15% Turkic blood. I scored 4% with a DNA test btw.
Balkan Turk
Interresting , what was your highest percentage?
I went to LA a few weeks ago and it definitely felt very Mexican. I think it has always been like that, You can't talk about the south of the U.S without the Mexicans and central American population being apart of that history.
It's was Spanish then Mexican the Spanish did a lot in the USA before they lost control
I’m pretty sure the multitudes of illegal immigrants who have no intention of assimilating also has something to do with that. LA was very homogenous back then for Anglo Americans.
Good video.
11:50 'Watch some colour television'? - I wasn't aware John Logie Baird was hispanic. You learn something new every day....
It's Crusader Kings 2 all over again.
Check out the After the End Mod, it's CK2 in post apocalyptic medieval North and Central America.
no one here counts equatorial Guinea? or easter islanders as Hispanic??
Very true! Spanish speaking countries. However, it is a mess with Mexico and Central America.
Desert Rose Western Sahara still speaks some Spanish
New Mexican Hispanic here and great video, us Mexicans have a lot of pride so assimilation is very slow,
Hey Masaman this reminds me of something I read a while back about if the US (plus Canada and Northern Mexico) were divided into these cultural regions. Idk if you have read it in case you want to make a video on it: www.businessinsider.com/the-11-nations-of-the-united-states-2015-7
screw the haters you do a great job keep it up
"Disclaimers are for wimps anyways" You sir just earned a star in my book! :)
*What made me so interested with this channel are the topics and the reactions in the comment section, and definitely not the way of discussion by the uploader. It sounds robotic like ur using an android voice ( text to speech app). Youre not a good speaker at all*
I'm sorry but I really don't get why people care so much about ethnicity to they point that they will start entire independence movements over it. Can anyone explain to me what the big deal is? also can some explain to me the "color television" thing at the end of this video?
Homogeneity is one of the best ways to create a stable, unified, peaceful country. IQ also varies between ethnicity, as well as shared history, culture, language, and other biological factors like bone structure.
Dear Hispanics:
Your cuisine and love for family is awesome!
Thanks!
Thanks. Always nice to see not everyone in the comments is an ass 😆
U forgot the weed & cocaine too

your internet and penicillin are awesome

If a different group of people were in charge, you'd still have racism, bigotry, prejudice etc. There will always be some level of friction or conflict when you have different groups of people living side by side. Look at any other region of the world, and the phenomenon is the same, just varies by degree.
xiongmu1 exactly I don’t understand why some people have a tough time seeing these things
Masan what is ur background ? I need to know
Wait what would the size and GDP of that country be?
The border between the Mexican Empire and the Louisiana Purchase was not well defined, and many parts of Eastern Texas, New Mexico, and Colorado were claimed by both Mexico and the French Empire at the time of the Louisiana Purchase. Also, the Russian Empire's claims in Northern California also overlapped their territorial claims of New Spain, and also the newly independent Mexican nation. -- If the US hadn't taken control of what is now the Southwest, then most likely the British would have come down from the Dominion of Canada and taken over the entire Pacific Coast of North America. Also, if the British or the US didn't take over the Southwest, then most likely the Japanese would have considered it a very tempting prize during the expansion in the Pacific during the 1930s - 40s.
Gustav Babic
also if the US hadn't killed all native americans probably martians would had done it.
for fucks sake how stupid are you
You need to distinguish between legal and illegal immigrants better because that is the crux between latinos supporting border controls and not.
What if we return the Americas to the indigenous indians?
Can you make a video about the Caribbean Hispanics in Florida??
A Mexican man developed the first color TV, so I get why he said watch some colored TV :)

That's literally Mexico's only invention.lol
Er...no, that was John Logie Baird in 1928. British. He also invented television itself in 1926, 3DTV in 1940, the first fully electronic colour TV in 1944, and high definition TV (1000 lines) in 1943. So no, a mexican did not invent colour TV, that's a lie so mexicans can feel proud about something.

Just to say I’m half African-American half Cuban so therefore I support all Hispanics Latinos in all of the races always find it for myself to be always in between to help those because I have open mind but it doesn’t help that most people just throw it around and just look at face I look at culture and say oh it’s not all that bad are we don’t want them around us you have to understand the world is intermixing to say the truth I rather be born Brazilian but that’s just my Opinion I love everyone and everything thank you so much for bringing that to light I loved it
