I find that many in these fora don't know much about Latin American nations' political histories. I would like to start a thread to discuss them all if there is an interest. I will list all the Latino nations I consider Latin American. This includes nations who don't necessarily speak Spanish and an Indigenous language(s) as their official language. I will include Brazil and Belize. I won't include Morocco or Equatorial Guinea because they have Spanish as an official language but are located in Africa. I won't include the Phillipines even though they were ruled by Spain for more than three centuries because the Phillipines are located in Asia.
1. Mexico
2. El Salvador
3. Guatemala
4. Panama
5. Nicaragua
6. Costa Rica
7. Belize
8. Honduras
9. Venezuela
10. Colombia
11. Uruguay
12. Paraguay
13. Argentina

16. Bolivia
17. Ecuador
18. Peru

20. Cuba
21. Dominican Republic
22. Puerto Rico
23.Haiti
(Haiti and French Guyana) I included because they speak French that is a Latin Romance derived language and as such qualifies as Latin American.
A brief history will be included for each nation. It will then be followed by its present system of government. Along with its current sitting president. Afterwards we can discuss the beginnings of each nation's history if there is an ongoing interest. Otherwise I will just include a lot of good information on its political history and its current form of government and wrap it up.
