What If Germanics and Slavs migrated to Latin America Instead of Iberian?

[Gredos]

What would the colonization of Latin America would be instead of Iberians? Would mixed marriages happened etc. Would people In Mexico be speaking a Germanic dialect today?

Intermarriage is a myth, the reality is that the small original mestizo populations prospered and multiplied for five centuries to the detriment of the native populations. in the north they are still in the process



in terms of language, you can see that Guyanese, Surinamese, and others, acquired the language of the dominant colonizer

That would go so hard.

I think if Slavic people ever colonized some place that wasn't miserably cold it would be pretty neat. However we just don't have colonialism in us.

Slavs already colonized Balkans, Volga-Urals, Siberia and large part of central Europe. You don't become largest meta-ethnicity in Europe by not moving around. Oh yeah, black sea steppe too.

Russians + Greeks made the Balkans


Russians + Native Americans would make something in a way similar to Central Asia


you would be part of Eastern Europe culturally, so in the world maps America would be seen to the right, not to the left, so we would see the Eastern European cultural continuum from East Germany, Poland and Czechoslovakia to Yugoslavia, Romania, Bulgaria, to Central Asia, to Siberia, to Americas.


we'd also nicely stay next to US like a thorn in their side, haha, we wouldn't sell Alaska etc


but we'd still be a bit more corrupt and a bit poorer than the West I think, because we are Oriental in mentality - Eastern Europe is Oriental in mentality. I am not saying it as a bad thing, but we have our own challenges related to that

Say what?

Czech Republic is also product of Slavic colonization from the east. It was originally inhabited by Celts. Than Germanics came, and finally Slavs.

I think that if you look at any expansions of Slavic people or actions of Slavic people (anywhere from Russia to Czechia) and call it "colonialism", it's a very very very liberal use of the world. In my mind, there is a big difference between Slavic people moving 250 km from home and pushing some Celts out, and Spaniards sailing across an ocean and colonizing an entire continent and so on. I also think the relationship between Russia and the various non-Slavic states in its federation is quite different than the relationship between Western Europeans and any place colonized by them.
