I am going to ask for the Mexicans but can't write in Spanish, only Portuguese and a bit English.

I wanted to say: Why, not because. I was wrong.
"Who is the hero of the Latin America?" "Why are we underdeveloped?"

"Who is the hero of Latin America?" "Why are we underdeveloped?"


Names of countries normally do not take a definite article - some do, like "The United States", but Latin America does not need one.

"Porque/por que" is "why" when it asks a question (including an indirect question) and "because" when it is a conjunction.

So for example - "Porque (é que) você bebe tanto?" "Porque estou com sede" - "why do you drink so much? Because I am thirsty".
"por quê" at the end of a phrase is always why. "Quero saber a razão por quê..." - I want to know the reason why.

Probably best to ask in Spanish if it's for Mexico:

Asi que los paises latinos son tan poco desarollados, como podemos decir que existe un heroe latino?

"Who is the hero of Latin America, seeing as we are under developed?."..Chapolim Colorado.
You don't need 'the' before Latin America.
