Puertoricans are Puertoricans. Puerto Rico is a melting pot of nationalities. The base of the nationalities started with the Taino indians, Spaniards and African Slaves. With the 1815 Royal Decree of Graces the entry of white, rich and Catholic Europeans was permitted. These included Germans, French, Corsicans, Italians, etc. And after the US purchase of the island North Americans added to the mix. Puerto Rico also has small populations of people from other places including Dominicans, Hatians, Brasilians, etc.

Puerto Rico is made historically from e main ethnic groups that eveolved to make up the collective puertorrican culture. Taino is the indigenous, Spanish arrived to the island in 1493 and Africans that were brought to the island by Spanishin the 1500's to replace the decimated Taino population.

Since the US invasion of the island in 1898, the American influence has been present but faced with resistance to assimilate from the general puertorrican society.
