In that case 70% of Argentinians aren’t Latin American.

They’re a majority Caucasian country deriving from descendents of European immigrants, just like the United States.

Argentina is a European country in Latin America.

Most of its population are descended from Spanish, Italian and English immigrants.

Most Latin American countries are mestizo population but Argentina is of European stock.

“They’re [Argentina] a majority Caucasian country deriving from descendents of European immigrants, just like the United States.”

And they elected a socialist government, just like the United States!

Furthermore, they had one of the most prosperous economies in the world, until it was strangled by government regulation, just like...uh-oh.

If you ever want to piss off an Argentine, there are several rude words that translate as "black", "Indian", or "Bolivian" that will do the trick.

Other Latin American countries find the Argies rather full of themselves, and love to poke fun at their haughty self-image as a nation of white Europeans.
