I don’t understand why you guys keep mentioning other countries than where she is from. Nicaragua is a country in Central American between El Salvador and Costa Rica. I happen to be from this country. There is a very mixed bag there. On the Atlantic coast you will find a big influence of Afro-Caribbean. On the Pacific coast you will see a lot of Spaniard and Native Indian influence. Some Persian as well as I’ve been asked if I’m of Persian descent. I’m the skin tone of Megan Fox with light brown eyes and dark brown hair. My brother is about a shade or two lighter than Eve. :)

She’s definitely NOT African at all. On her verified Twitter, she said she was Nicaraguan, Swedish, and German. She doesn’t look African either. She’s Hispanic and White. That’s it.

In the the demographic of Chile above they have several DNA test whether Chile has a white majority (30-90%) or a mestizo majority (10-65%).
Other Countries in Latin America like Peru and Bolivia has a Native American majority and Ecuador is 25% and Guatemala is 40% American Indian.

Here’s the funny thing about Chile,it had a good size population of black people in the 1800′s.You guys ever heard of assimilation,that’s what happen to the black people there.Now I’m using and article by (Rodolfo Monge Oviedo),who states that Latin classification is base on the perception of the person or the bureaucrats who design the categories.It states that light mulattoes often say their white,and people who obviously have African heritage will say they are mestizo.This gives the idea that there are no Black people in these countries,Argentina is one of those said countries.It also states that when you see an ( *) sign that means black are acknowledged but no figures are given.(**) means no figures are available. Chile, Nicarguan , and Argentina,all had population of black people that have been assimilated and now these people call themselves mestizo.(this part is mine)They call themselves that so they don’t get treated like trash like the black people who can’t hide their dark skin.

You forgot about Black and Indian down there.Now as far as these two countries Argentina, Chile all they did was breed out the skin color;the DNA is still there.I’m using these sources:
Figures for Argentina from Emiliano Endrek,El mestizaje en Co’rdoba:Siglo xvIII y principios del xIx (Co’rdoba 1966) pg. 12
Jose’ Luis Masini, La esclavitud negra en Mendoza: e’poca indenpendiente (Mendoza, 1962) pg 10
Also Evelyn P. Meiners figure from a census of 1810
Domingo Amanategui Solar,”La trata de nergo en Chille”
This is to much for me to be writing,lets just say there’s a lot to back up what I’m saying.

The native American component in Argentines according to the Wikipedia entry varies.
17.3% for Native American
mitochondrial gene pool is mostly of Native American ancestry (53.7%)
15.8% Amerindian
56% of the 320 individuals has at least one Amerindian ancestor. From this percentage, only 10% of the population has Amerindian ancestors in both parental lineages.
19.4% Amerindian
mtDNA Amerindian haplogroups were most frequent in individuals from the northern and southern regions of the country, appearing in more than 60% of the sequences. A slightly different situation is observed in central Argentina, where the Amerindian haplogroups appeared in less than 50% of the analyzed samples, and the European contribution is more relevant.

You know you really should come up with a name,calling you Anonymous is not good.
Now like I said the reason why the African part is small is because their breeding it out.The avg is 4% now in a generation or two they will get what they want

That place has always had a healthy black population.She without a doubt has the heritage in her.She and you are just like the rest of the people down there who hate that part of their heritage.They have been raised to hate it,and that’s why they deny it

Well the odds are pretty good,although and this is just my opinion,I don’t she would admit it.Saying you have African blood down doesn’t seem to be a good thing
