🇦🇷 Genetic Landscape of Argentina
Argentina is South America's most European-looking country, with roughly 85% of the population claiming European descent — primarily Italian and Spanish, with significant German, British, and Eastern European contributions. Buenos Aires received more Italian immigrants than any city outside Italy. However, Indigenous and mestizo genetics remain significant, especially in the northern provinces. This creates one of Latin America's most phenotypically diverse populations, where blue-eyed blondes and dark-featured individuals are both 'typically Argentine.'
