Appelbaum|publisher=University of North Carolina Press|quote=This blending of culture and genealogy is also reflected in the use of the terms "Spanish" and "white". For most of the colonial period, Americans of European descent were simply referred to as "Spaniards"; beginning in the late 18th century, the term "blanco" (white) came into increasing but not exclusive use. Even those of presumably mixed ancestry may have felt justified in claiming to be Spanish (and later white) if they participated in the dominant culture by, for example, speaking Spanish and wearing European clothing.(p. 33)}}</ref>
Direct descendants of European settlers who arrived in [[Americas|the Americas]] during the colonial and post-colonial periods can be found throughout Latin America. Most immigrants who settled the region for the past five centuries were [[Spanish people|Spanish]] and [[Portuguese people|Portuguese]]; after independence, the most numerous non-[[Iberian Peninsula|Iberian]] immigrants were [[French people|French]], [[Italian people|Italians]], and [[Germans]], followed by other Europeans as well as [[West Asia]]ns (such as Levantine [[Arabs]] and [[Armenian people|Armenians]]).<ref name=britsa/><ref name=Leiden>{{cite web |url=http://www.let.leidenuniv.nl/history/migration/chapter53.thml |title=Migration to Latin America |access-date=2010-02-24 |last=Schrover |first=Marlou }}{{dead link|date=September 2017 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}</ref><ref>{{cite book |title=International migration and development in the Americas |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=IAt3cSt-dEAC&pg=PA122 |author=CELADE (Organization)|isbn = 9789211213287|year = 2001| publisher=Naciones Unidas, CEPAL/ECLAC, Population Division, Latin American and Caribbean Demographic Centre (CELADE) }}</ref>
