South American genetics are a tangled shitshow, but don't mestizo Hispanics have Mayan/Aztec ancestry (hence their skin color?) So do they count as native? The Métis people in Canada are French/Indian hybrids and count themselves as "Indigenous," that could be a precedent.
 
Solution
It's not simple. Some countries, like Guatemala, Bolivia and Peru have large populations of almost 100% native Amerindian, or Indigenas, as they prefer to be called, Most others have mestizos, a mix of Spanish/natives. It varies from country to country on how much and to what extent. Counties like Cuba, Puerto Rico and Argentina basically killed off their native populations, either accidentally (through the introduction of diseases like smallpox/tuberculosis/syphilis, which were unknown in the New World so the natives had no immunity) or deliberately (hence the importation of slaves from Spanish/Portuguese colonies in Africa).

There's no real advantage to identifying as a mixed race mutt south of the border so they all downplay their...
In Latin American countries the majority of the population is mestizo so there is no point in identifying as native when you're mestizo, unlike the Métis who live in a mayority white country. People who are considered indigenous in Latin American have much closer ties to their indigenous heritage, usually speak a different language or dialect and were born in specific communities.
 
Yes. Mexicans are split pretty 50/50, while Uruguay and Argentina are pretty white, and places like Bolivia are more Amerindian.

Argies have been browning fast since the '90s. When their economy tanked and the Kirchner grifters took over, that's when all the guidos and Jews and wannabe bongs in the Union Jack t-shirts all fled the place. What replaced them were Bolivian and Paraguayan illegals, Arab totally legitimate businessmen, and Chinese coolies. The results have been what you can probably imagine.
