Sure, its was a British colony but the majority of them consider themselves Latin American. They, like other Central American countries that border the Caribbean Coast, consider themselves more Caribbean, while others, mostly near the Guatemalan border, consider themselves Latino. Latin America is extremely diverse. The demographics of Belize is similar to other Central American countries; Mestizo 48.7%, Creole 24.9%, Maya 10.6%, Garifuna 6.1%, other 9.7%. Belize, in any other way, is Latin American. A large amount of Belizeans don’t speak English, many speak Spanish or Creole.
