Another good question would be: Is this the reason why Mexican people call themselves spanish despite being 90 percent amerindian?

I find it very funny when Mexican people claim they are like spaniards (HERE a pitiful attempt). If you ever go to Spain you will notice that Spanish people have much more in common with argentinians than with ANY mexican. Why don't they just come out and call themselves native american? Because they are more native american than most if not all native american tribes in the United states.

Native American from the US:

Mexicans:

It's like calling haitians french, it makes no sense. Mexicans are kinda to Spaniards as Haitians are to French. Mexicans haven't still assumed their true national identity IMO.
