Álvaro de Bazán en realidad hay que distinguir el genotipo del fenotipo. Una persona puede tener sangre indígena y verse completamente europeo. Te digo porque con mi hermano hicimos una de estas pruebas de ADN y resulta que siendo que el es muy rubio y de tez pálida, tiene mas genes indígenas que yo, que tengo el pelo castaño y que me bronceo fácilmente. En mi caso tu no podrías saber si es que tengo sangre indígena al verme. Pero me identifico como latino y mestizo (a pesar de que tengo cerca de 90% de genes europeos) El punto es que en Chile (y gran parte de Latinoamerica) la gente mira con desprecio todo lo indígena y por lo tanto quieren siempre ser blancos y evitar ser asociados con los indígenas. En parte es herencia del sistema de castas español que quedó impreso en lo profundo de la cultura latinoamericana. Algo muy curioso que me he dado cuenta al respecto, es que en latinoamerica la gente tiende a ver a los mestizos de su país como mas europeos que los de los demás. Quizás es porque los mestizos de los otros país tienen facciones poco familiares que les llaman mas la atención, por lo que pueden identificar más rápidamente los rasgos indígenas. En todo caso en España también tienen mucha variedad de colores. Estudié en Alemania y mi mejor amigo era un asturiano de Gijón, que era mucho mas moreno que yo, siendo que él es 100% europeo. En fin, la apariencia es solo una manifestación de una parte de la herencia genética. Y si, el Chileno promedio si se ve mestizo aun que le duela aceptarlo.

You overlooked the Philippines! My wife is a Philippine Aguirre, and she has a book documenting the oversized role (among a small Spanish diaspora) that Basques have played there in the colonial period and beyond.

I majored in Geography in college, and I have a Bachelor's degree in Geography. I am familiar with the Basque people. The language and history of the Basque people, I find it interesting. An interesting fact: Boise, Idaho has the largest Basque population in the USA. I would love to hear you speak more on that. Another interesting fact: The city of Durango, Mexico, was founded by Basque explorer Francisco de Ibarra and he was the governor of Nueva Vizcaya (now part of the modern day Mexican states of Durango and Chihuahua). Nueva Vizcaya was named for one of Spain's Basque provinces.

The Basque country (it's called that way in Spanish and in French) was originally much larger: Gascony (essentially the south-west of France) comes from Vascony - Vasque and Basque is actually the same thing. The separation of Gascony from the rest of the Basque country occured centuries ago, but point is, it covered an area much larger than depicted here originally. The Gascony was assimilated and the Gascon language took over the Basque language (people didn't speak French there until relatively recently).

If I didn’t have the blood of Vikings and saxons, I would be jealous of those with basque heritage.

Excellent info, mate.

Thanks for this video

Months ago I meet an exchange student girl from that part of Spain. She was telling about her and the exchange program and how much she loved this new place and things like that. Then she says " but, you what's weird? more than 60% of my classmates have basque lastnames. Why is that?". Great video Masaman and greetings from Quito, Ecuador.

Basque here. I've never heard of us referred as Basques with an S, but Basque being it's own plural. Yes, we came as sheepherders, and I was one for a long time. I was hired for the job, simply because I was Basque. My employer said he never had to check if I was doing my work (remote and by myself for weeks) and that I always did beyond what the job called for. Typical Basque, as my mother would say.

another awesome video

I love all your videos there really good

I have Basque heritage and I'm Ecuadorian 🤗🇪🇨✔👍 my grandmas last name is Basque, Zaldumbide, and my great grandpas dad was basque and could speak Euskera but anyways my great grandpa would always say that Basque people are "La indomable raza de la península ibérica" something like that yaa shout out to everyone with Basque heritage out there

A majority of the Filipino upper-class have Basque origin, they own a lot of land and businesses in the Philippines, the legacy of the Spanish Empire.

Interesting that you brought that up. I have a friend whose Filipino father had rather considerable Basque ancestry.

Keep up the good work.

Good reporting again masaman!

If you want a good resource on Basque history, I recommend “The Basque History of the World” it’s a great read

Excellent video Masaman I didn't know that the small Basque population of Spain composed a large part of the Spanish conquistadors, Spanish America colonial elite and the leaders of Latin America independence from Spain. I didn't realize Basque last name were very numerous in Latin America.

What the guy is saying in the video is bullshit. Oh and most Conquistadores (not conquistadors, learn how to speak) are from the south of Spain, not from the north lol You guys are beeing played like fiddles and you like it haha bunch of ignorants

Hey masman good to see ur incredible work again Please do a video about Macedonia and why it is controversial between the Slavs and the greek

I majored in Spanish; while studying that language, The Basque(e) were touched upon; but...THIS post has SO MUCH fascinating history of those people, AND, that area; THANK YOU for this info!! (I think I MUST'VE been TIRED, because I never studied this subset of Spanish culture. AGAIN, THIS post is fascinating...! Y'all take care---!! 😷👣

You missed a fascinating twist, which helps to understand how the Basques managed to keep their culture, and why autonomy is the mahjor goal, not necessarily independence. In the Castilian-dominated Spanish kingdom the Basques were seen as the most loyal allies of the king. They were allowed to govern themselves after their own fashion. The Spanish kings swore under the tree of Guernica to respect their liberties. This changed in the 19th century, because the Basques stayed loyal to the losing side in the war of succession. For dictator Franco the traditional Basque liberties were a threat to his central control. The Basque fight is also a fight to get back the traditional autonomy they had during previous centuries.

May explain why I never "accepted" things as they were...hmmmm makes sense! lol (Mother's side came from Basque, my great x 4 grandparents came from Basque to the Province of Comayagua, modern day Honduras. Long live the Basques! :D

Thank you Mason be blessed

Great video!

Hi, I'm basque myself, and first of all thanks for making a video about our culture and history, really glad to see interest about my country in the international community. And let me correct you on the part about independence, there's certainly a rising on people who don't want to belong to the spanish state anymore, yet there are still some people that just want more autonomy and keep under the spanish state.

Tere is no basque country, learn to speak properly. Your country is Spain. Viva España, indepe basura. Oh and there is no rising at all, their cause is completelly dead.

There's a lot of Basque community here in the Philippines and well assimilated into the Filipino culture. Many of them are rich families. Prominent families like Zobel de Ayala, Elizalde, Zubiri, Aboitiz etc.

Grabe! Thank you for sharing this! I got Basque in my DNA results and I'm Pinoy pero couldn't pin point where it could be from. Ingat!

Great video I loved it ...

Fascinating people and history ... the language remains very much an enigma, Thanks for the video.

Surprised how you pointed out the similarities of the Irish and the Basque... but didn’t point out that the Basque were the original settlers of Ireland before the Celts!
