Latin America
Probably Spain and Portugal because of Their colonies in Latin America
Latin Americans sought independence from their parent countries, mainly Spain and Portugal. The French and American revolutions served as inspirations for Latin American independence movements, as they demonstrated the possibility of overthrowing colonial rule and establishing independent governments.
I think you're confusing Latin America with South America. Most people speak Spanish or Portuguese in South America because Spain and Portugal invaded and colonized the region.However, most people of "Latin" America speak either Spanish or Portuguese because that's pretty much the definition of Latin America: any American country where a Romance language is spoken, such as Spanish or Portuguese.
What fascinates the conquest and colonization of latin america
Spain had the greatest impact on Latin America.
Latin America typically consists of South America, Central America, and the Caribbean. These regions share a common history of colonization by European countries, predominantly Spain and Portugal, and have a shared identity rooted in a mix of indigenous, African, and European cultures.
Brazil (locally called Brasil), is the only country in Latin America (or at least South America), which Portugal settled in.
Sure! Examples of colonization include the British colonization of India, the Spanish colonization of Latin America, and the French colonization of Algeria.
Spain
Spain and Portugal did.
Most people in Latin America are Catholic due to the influence of Spanish and Portuguese colonization in the region, starting in the 16th century. The Catholic Church played a significant role in the colonization process, leading to the spread of Catholicism among the local populations. Additionally, Catholic traditions and practices became deeply ingrained in the cultural identity of many Latin American countries over time.
