Latin American Australian refers to Australian persons who were born in Latin America (including the Caribbean and Central America) irrespective of their ancestral backgrounds, and their descendants. Brazilian Australians make up the largest proportion of Latin American Australians, followed by Chilean Australians and Salvadoran Australians. Most Latin American Australians speak English but many continue to use Spanish or Portuguese as well. At the 2006 Census 86,156 Australian residents declared that they were born in South America (69,157), Central America (12,959) or the Caribbean (4,040).〔(Australian Bureau of Statistics 20680-Country of Birth of Person (minor groups) by Sex - Australia )〕 They constitute only 0.43% of the Australian population. 93,795 residents declared themselves being of South American, Central American or Caribbean ancestry (either alone or in combination with one other ancestry).〔(Australian Bureau of Statistics 20680-Ancestry (full classification list) by Sex - Australia )〕 Until 2006, Chile was the country that had contributed the largest proportion of immigrants to Australia. In the 2006 Census 23,305 Australian residents declared they were born in Chile. Other source Latin American countries include El Salvador (18,000), Argentina (11,369 residents), Uruguay (9,376), Brazil (6,647), Peru (6,322), Colombia (5,706), and Ecuador (1,356).〔(of Birth of Person (full classification list) by Sex&producttype=Census Tables&method=Place of Usual Residence&areacode=0 ABS Census - Country of Birth, 2006 )〕 But in the 2011 Census, Brazil became the largest source of immigrants from Latin America in Australia, with a total of 147,509 Brazil-born people living in the country, leaving Chile in second place.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Brazilian Australians )〕 Many believe that there is as many as 200,000 Latin Americans living in Australia. ==Cultural backgrounds== Within the Latin American minority, there are people of different national and ethnic origins. Physical appearances vary widely and often show the blending of European, Amerindian, and African features that has occurred over many generations. Most Central Americans are mestizos. Mestizos have both European and American Indian ancestors and, in some cases, African ancestors as well. Their European ancestors were mostly Spaniards. Their Indian ancestors were living in what is now Latin America when the Spaniards arrived. Most of the African ancestors were brought as slaves to the region while it was in Spanish control. Many Colombians are of mixed Spanish and African descent (known as mulattoes), with their African ancestors having been brought over by the Spaniards to work as slaves. Many other Colombians have American Indian ancestry as well. Most Argentine-Australians are of Spanish and/or Italian descent, though other ethnic groups such as the British, Eastern Europeans, Arabs, Mestizos and Mulattoes also emigrated from Argentina.
