Hodreego Vermelho yup! They have an Italian accent and use some Italian words in their Argentine dialect! It’s amazing how much of an influence Italians had on Argentina

My girlfriend from Argentina struggled when here in the US, she faced a dilemma on what "ethnicity box" to choose on the census because ignorant Americans think all Latinos are Amerindians/mestizos. Latino is a cultural heritage, for those who don't know it (you can be a Latino white, black, or even Asian). Also, Americans and other Latin Americans think Argentinians are white Americans when they see them for the first time... until they hear them speak Spanish, and even then some think they are speaking another European language. LOL. Also, when Brazilians (white) come to the US, they face the same awkwardness and are told: "But you are not black" as if everyone in Brazil should be black. And even worse, they think Brazilians speak Spanish. NO! Brazilians speak PORTUGUESE. PLEASE EDUCATE YOURSELF MORE, dear Americans. Argentina is the Italy of the Americas indeed. Most north Italians went there between 1880 and 1950 and they settled in the center and south part of the country. The northern part of the country remained mostly with the Spanish and indigenous mixed people. Because of this, today you can see a distinct racial makeup between the north and the center-south. The food they eat is basically Italian. The popular Argentinian accent is pretty much Spanish with Italian accent. The popular "porteño" dialect has many Italian words. The hand and arm gestures, etc. Most Argentinians can get Italian citizenship if their grandparents were Italian.

I got to be part of a work project in Uruguay. My experience there was amazing. I must say that the only Spanish influence I saw was the Rio-Platence Spanish, and everything else was Italian! 90% of my Uruguayan colleagues had Italian last names, the food was very Italian in terms of pastas, sauces, drinks etc. Every so often a few Italian words were thrown in to our conversations in Spanish. A lot of them kept an Italian passport just in case. So, yeah South America has a huge Italian influence.

My opinion on why Italians decided to settle in Latin America is Italians are culturally similar to Spanish/Portuguese i.e. Iberian culture (due to Roman's conquest and influence on the Iberian land) which made it easy for them to assimilate unlike the Italians who emigrated to North America where they would face discrimination and fights because they were considered "less white" by their Anglo neighbors. Fascinating enough, well not really, due to Italians' easy time settling in Latin America, they managed to preserve much of their Italian culture. Argentina is a great place to experience "Italian culture" on a budget. Meanwhile, in North America, most of the Italian culture is non-existent as Italian-Americans are extremely Americanized and the only thing that is Italian is their last name. I noticed you mention mostly Northern Italians settled in Latin America which is interesting considering the fact that most of the Italians who moved to North America are mostly fro Southern Italy.

Hey Masaman, great video! I'm Brazilian with Italian Portuguese and French ancestors, but I grew up in city where for the most parts Italians migrated to, it's called Criciuma, in the souther part of the Santa Catarina state. In my state particularly there was a huge amount of Italian and German immigration but also small quantities of Polish and Arabs, and in the recent year an influx of immigrants from Cameroon, Angola and other African countries who make partnerships with the government to exchange college students or people running away from poverty, subhuman conditions, etc. Take a look at Nova Veneza, a small town near my hometown where they even have a gondola sent from Italy at the town square. There's also "Gemellaggios" with cities here in Brazil. Political agreements to exchange culture, economical knowledge, strategies and incentives. It's the name given for an agreement between "brother/sister towns" from different countries.

This was very interesting. Thanks.

Great video. I knew about the Italian influence in the region, but did not know how extensive it was. Well done !

By the way, yes we Italians have the habit, good or bad as you prefer, to trying adapt and integrate ourselves in the local community and learn habits, languages etc. It's really extremely rare to find out Italians that won't try to adapt and instead wants to stick to their own culture. One of our biggest philosophers once said that the Italian immigrants in Germany wouldn't be called "Italians" after a couple of generations, but "Germans". We are too comprehensive with the locals. Accepting to change ourselves for the sake of good cohexistance... You will not find people like us anywhere in the world.

As an Italian who recently emigrated to la Plata, I think I can answer your last question easily: as an Italian you may feel more at home in Uruguay than in the Italian region next to the one you were born in. It's also a lot easier for an Italian speaker to learn Spanish than Sardinian, Trentinian, Sicilian or even Bolognese or Neopolitan. I agree with your definition of "informal colonies" but you may add to that the fact that Italy is largely unaware of this fact haha....I would go with "forgotten informal colonies"

Though they are richer (when it comes to GDP), the aren't half as turistic and recognizable as the German cities (like Ivoti, Morro Reuter, Nova Petrópolis, Neu Hamburg and especially the twin cities Gramado and Canela, huge turistic centers in winter due to the fact that it's one of the only places in Brazil where snow can be seen).

I know only one in here, and I must know my people because my grandgrandfather created the Italian Society, and this guy is old his father was in the Italian cavalry.

Good video as usual. I believe Italians were able to be aculturated in South American countries because there was not a language barrier like their was with Italian or otther immigrants in the USA like Poles, Germans, Greeks ot even Western Jews from France. The Italian language was so similar to the dominant society of Spanish or Portuguese (Brazil) speakers they could almost be understood in their native language by foreign speakers of the Americas. It is far easy to fit into a society if speak a language which is familiar especially when you consider portions of the Italian homeland was occupied by the Spaniard and French Empires. Moreover the religion help as well since there was not much in terms of how each culture see the world with both being heavy Catholic influenced. Thanks again for the amazing video and all the work you.

It wasn't just the language or religious barrier, It was also an economic phenomenom. The Southern Cone of South America is the most liberal region of Latin America but it is also heavily influenced by a civic prometropoli mindset because the chiefs of the wealthy families would own shares of cattle in the countryside but send their sons to study in the capital cities near the ocean to administer their sales. This meant so that the nations would be directly influenced by the economic trades shipped from the ports to the world and the countryside would provide the capital cities with the rough materials to sell and get thir share only after the exchange was made and the capital cities had handled the trade income. Eventually this process expanded so much during the XIX century that the capital cities began to actively seek for industrial investors from economically empoverish Europe to process said rough materials and improve their sales. This created a huge demand for qualified workers and it made it so much easier for foreign workers to incorporate and find jobs becuase of it.

Lautaro Fonz This partially true of the Northern and Southern of Italy. However many more northern were industrial based since many more came from urban centers of Italy. Southerners really saw now looser indirect governance and more of the conflict during the war for independence/unification.

On the contrary, Italians didn't get acultured, but Argentine culture got thouroughly Italianized : our Rioplatense Spanish is closer to Napolitan in sound, our food (besides steak of course) stems from Italy (ravioles, ñoquis, pascualina, etc.) and take into account that Italian immigrants were more numerous than the Argentinian population

I agree: Italian emigrants in general had a lot of success all over the world, but the similarity with languages as Portuguese and Spanish is the main reason of the Italian unbelievable success in Southern America.

I'm Paraguayan and I'm a quarter Italian. I feel really proud of my Italian heritage. Greats from the Guarani land! Keep it up!

BOY, this channel is good...
