  • When we talk about the European influence in Puerto Rico, of course Spain comes up
    and for good reason. However European influences were not limited to just Spain alone. In fact European influence in Puerto Rico actually Included several other countries. Prominent among them were the Portuguese, Corsicans, and the French. And to a lesser extent, the Irish, and even some Germans. Overtime all of these groups blended into the main Puerto Rican population and contributed in their own way to the culture and identity on the island. Many continue to still come to settle on this enchanted island till this day.

    Being born, raised and resident of Puerto Rico, this is a great video. There is too much Africancentrism, indigenism and Hispanophobia when marginal groups are the ones telling the distorted story of their own. Thank you for talking about the Spanish and European origin of Puerto Rico because that is actually the protagonist.

    My paternal grandmother is from Puerto Rico and her lineage goes back to France. The names in my family were even entirely French up until my 2nd great grandmother. They settled on the island in the 19th century (coffee and l believe tobacco or sugar plantations in San Sebastián), but I was able to trace them back to 14th century France.

    I am always impressed by your short history on Puerto Rico. I did my Ancestory test and showed Portuguese, Indegioues people , Spainaird and others. NOw I always felt there was more Spainaird since my dad's mom is spaniard. My dad's dad was mulato. Portuguese was a total surprise. Apparently Portuguese was from my grandfather on my mother's side and Taino bloodline from my mom's mom-abuelita. As I listened to your accounts of the European influences in Puerto Rico, I can understand why. Many thanks!

    Irish names in Puerto Rico have often become corrupted and only bear some trace of the original. For example, Sullivan is sometimes corrupted to Solivan and McDonald to Maldonado. Barnes can be either Irish or Spanish.

      @julian65886 you forget that when the Spanish encountered the Aztec city...They were amazed at how much more advanced it was compared to European cities at the time..In fact most of the technology that the Europeans had at the time did not originate in Europe. Don't assume that the progress in the world was a result of European colonization. ..Now just to be clear, I'm not arguing for or against European colonization...I was just trying to answer your original question why many are stealing towards African and Taino identity..These two groups have gotten the raw deal in this colonization process..Its changing but the effects are still there because it's all historically recent.

    Ohhhhhh that explains why Portuguese is my second highest ancestry percentage and spanish is my third with Taino being my first surprisingly. Puerto rico sure is an amazing island with an even more amazing history.

      @@coquireportwhat strikes me about this vlog: the native people of canaries island are 100% amazigh people which are related to Moroccan susse Amazigh. Since the gaucho’s people were displaced from canaries islands to peurto Rico, I would like you to add this fact to you videos. This would give the better distinction of the people makeup of the peurto Ricans rather focusing only on the European background etc
