Hispanic Discussion Thread!

Fully Independent Spanish Republic. Are there people who think that ?

Spain is a monarchy

[The Blaatschapen]

Hispanic means someone with connections to the Iberian Peninsula, not connections to Latins. Sort of how both Canada and the US have British heritage but to call the US “Canadian” would be inaccurate. In the same vein, calling Italians “Hispanic” is flatly incorrect.

Hispanic is to Latin/Romance as Anglo is to Germanic

Italians are to Spaniards what the Dutch are to the English. Part of the same family but distinct.

Woah, are Italians calling the Spaniards the stupid little brother too?

I’m not sure what you’re trying to say here

Are There People Who Want To Convert Spain From Monarchy To Republic ?

Hooray! A thread for my people!

Saludos a todos! I was born in the United States to a Cuban-Spanish mother and a Nicaraguan-Spanish father. My mother's family came from Galicia, Aragon, and Islas Canarias before immigrating to Cuba, whereas my father's family were mainly a mix of Spanish and Native American, and I have no idea where exactly they originated from.

I originally spoke only Spanish since I was raised by my mom's family for the majority of my life, but my Spanish accent is mainly a Cuban accent with a few bits of Gringo here and there. Evidently, I do know English, and I know a great amount of French, as well as some Italian. Although, I do want to learn Galician in the future. For looks, I overwhelmingly look like my mother's side, being dark haired, light eyed and light skinned, as part of my Galician roots.

Yeah they exist, a lot of people don’t really care about the monarchy.

Ahh that’s pretty cool. Both my parents are Spaniards from Asturias, and I was born in the US. I’ve got dual Spanish and US citizenship, which is a nice flex on US tourists when visiting Europe since I get to go through the EU customs lines

What is with the absolutely brutal, fratricidal, and seemingly pointless wars that Latin American countries went through in the second half of the 19th Century?

The Crown-Princes of the Throne of Spain are entitled: El Principe de Asturias. Asturias has a special place in Spain since that is where Don Pelayo was cornerned by the Umayyad Caliphate yet won the battle and where the Reconquista started.

There is a lot of good reading about social conflcits in 16th Century Spain. Many conversos formed pretty pliable political movements and were pretty successful at establishing themselves as an economic elite. They also founded the Jesuits (Ignatius himself was not a converso but most of the other guys were).

Actually, it's pretty funny how the Inquisition banned those with Jewish, Muslim or Pagan admixture from migrating to the colonies due the blood laws, yet Latin-America has alot of Jewish admixture and likewise when they had to conquer the Philippines from the local Sultanates they had no other recourse but to use Moriscos or Mozarabs who were familiar with Islam or the Arabic script.

There is a saying in the colonies: "Obedezco pero no cumplo" which means, "I obey but do not comply" when it comes to application of the impractical royal laws.

I was born and raised in Asturias myself, but my parents are Catalonian.

I'm dissapointed that there is no Filipino option, are we not among Spain's longest colonial territory?

Have been Spanish for 377 years while Mexico has been for Spanish for 319 years.

You seem to have forgotten Puerto Rico which had been under Spanish control for 407 years. And unlike the Philippines, there was no revolt going on there in 1898.

Not a Hispanic, Latino, or Mexican here, but from German and English descent. The school which I attend right now is filled entirely with Hispanics, Latinos, and Mexicans and I feel racially excluded and isolated. Are there any suggestions to try to fit into the crowd?

Um, you're all people, right?

I have no idea if it will work but you could start listening to latino music like this - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0VR3dfZf9Yg and learn latino street dancing. An example from France - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a5lP_088vIg

No one is friends with you? I'm surprised considering in my school you could always find a white guy or two in a crowd of Arabs or Latinos
