Because they are an non-Latin and Latin counttries, the only thing they have in common is the native poeple, but culturally they are different countries.

all Europe is caucasian and christian so its off the board.
most of Latin America is catholic, spanish speaking except some enclaves(or portuguese brazil) up to US
US and Canada similar.
Aus and NZ- ex british, similar.

Africa and Asia stays on in the game.

Interesting subject, how it did go in various parts of the world. China and India is interesting case really, also border of Bangladesh/India and south-east Asia.

That doesn't make Belize a latino country, Belize is a non-Latino one, that would be like the Dominican republic being a Francophone country due to the Haitians that go there.

Egypt and Sudan

Libya and Chad
Egypt ans Sudan aren't too much different, especially since southern Sudan is born. There is partial shared History.

Libya and Chad, on the other hand, are very different. But the desert seperate the two demographic poles (Mediterranean VS Sahel), so the shared frontier doesn't mean anything.
Some Tubus live in southernmost Libya though, but as I said, they live in a 'desert' and aren't very significant demographically.

Belize and Guatemala are quite different. In fact, you could add Mexico to that too. But I would be a liar to deny the commonalities. We have a lot of the same ethnic groups, just in different proportions. I wouldn't call Guatemala fully "Latino", since they are overwhelmingly "Ladino" Mayas.

I wouldn't call Belize, "non-Latino", but semi-Latino and semi-Anglo Caribbean, and not fully either of them .

New Mestizos differ from Mestizo-lizeans in identity, and language use. Spanish is an important, but from dominant language compared to Belizean Kriol, which basically all Belizeans speak

Guyana, Suriname, and French Guinana/rest of South America. Despite being a part of South American geographically. All three of these countries are more culturally allinged with the Caribbean and speak non Iberian languages.
