Brazillian are mistaken for Mexicans by ordinary people all the time.

. Who mistakes a typical Brazilian (with black, white, and some Indian) with a typical Mexican (Indian and white)? Do you get mulattos and mestizos confused? The only Brazilian and Mexicans that can be confusing are those of European descent. Even there, white Brazilians tend to be most diverse because of European immigration in the 19th century; there are German, Italian, and Spanish Brazilians along with Portuguese.

Tell me, where do you suppose the present inhabitants of Mexico came from originally, that is, to settle the heretofore empty land call Mexico?
