:::ethnicities::::

Answer 1

The original inhabitants were the Iberians, who were a Celtic people. Celts are sometimes thought of as their own people, but Celt is an umbrella term that includes Iberians, Gauls, and Britons.

Spain was initially colonized by the Carthaginians. However, in the 3rd century B.C, hegemony over Spain switched to the Romans, who forced the Carthaginians out of Spain during the Second Punic War. In the immediate aftermath, there was contention between Rome and the Iberians, but eventually the Iberians settled down and Romanized.

Though the ancient Latins and Iberians mingled, the Iberians pretty much kept their ethnicity well into the Imperial Era, This changed when the Empire began to disintegrate in the 5th century. The Visigoths, unlike the Romans, actually migrated into Spain. They were highly successful, forcing the Vandals out and taking virtually the entire peninsula and much of Gaul for themselves. The visigothic kingdom and the native Iberians eventually assimilated into each other, forming the basis for modern Spaniards the way that the Franks did with the Gauls to form the modern French, and the Lombardis did with the Latins to form the modern Italians.

In 711, the Visigothic kingdom was conquered by the Moors, which were an Islamic African people, which ethnically were closer to Numidians than Arabians. The number of actual moors and arabs in Spain was small, which allowed the native Spaniards to gradually drive them from the continent.

Answer 2

Spaniards are a composite mixture of Mediterranean and Nordic.

Examples of Mediterraneans are Southern Italians, Southern French, Greek, Israelis, Lebanese, etc.

Examples of Nordics are the fair-skinned, blonde-haired, blue-eyed Northern Europeans such as Swedes, Norweigians, and Finnish.

Most Spaniards are mixed Nordic and Mediterranean. But some Spaniards are predominantly Nordic, and some are predominantly Mediterranean.
