Is the European ancestry In Mexico all Spanish?

That he was the only president of mexico at the time that wanted to europeanize Mexico to the max by bringing Italians but unfortunately he failed.

Otra cosa que no lo quieras reconocer pero de que hubo presidentes eurocentristas lo hubo y Porfirio fue uno de ellos almenos que conozco.

After the Mexican revolution of 1910-1920 the Mexican government became hardcore indigenista-mestizo centric

Mexico did not seem to them to be a very attractive emigration destination for non-Iberian Europeans.

It was more diverse during the colonial period, there were Italians, French, British, Portuguese, Greek Islanders

Here we can see how they would Hispanicize their surnames and even first names as well
