Chile, Argentina, Uruguay and Paraguay are basically white, but there are many black people in Brazil. Why?

Brazil is a country with a vast territory and a sparse population. It used to be a colony of Portugal, and the Portuguese bloody hired many black slaves to be slaves in plantations, mines and other places. Later, Brazil abolished black slaves and liberated them politically. Black people are very fertile, so many places in Brazil are black now. At present, there are more white people in Brazil except Sao Paulo, and there are really many black people in other States.

Chile, Argentina, Uruguay and Paraguay were once Spanish colonies. Many poor people in Spain and Italy went to these places for gold, so the relative land was neither vast nor scarce, so the local colonists didn't buy too many slaves. Of course, there were few slaves at that time. Some of the slaves who survived and persisted in liberation were killed in the uprising of these countries to get rid of Spanish control, and some fled to other countries with many blacks, resulting in the majority of whites in these countries.

In fact, there are many Indians in Paraguay and many whites in Chile. Only Argentina and Uruguay are truly white.

Of course, the white people mentioned here are also relative to blacks and Indians. In fact, they are Latino, not white.

Shit, it doesn't make sense
