...............................................*tw ist my face into WTF mode*

It does exist..........

It a historic name for the Iberian Peninsula

since you can't click links I'll paste it for you

Hispania was the name given by the Romans to the whole of the Iberian Peninsula (modern Portugal, Spain, Andorra, Gibraltar and a very small southern part of France). When Rome was a republic, Hispania was divided into two provinces: Hispania Citerior and Hispania Ulterior. During the Principate, Hispania Ulterior was divided into two new provinces, Baetica and Lusitania, while Hispania Citerior was renamed Tarraconensis. Subsequently, the western part of Tarraconensis was split off, first as Hispania Nova, later renamed Callaecia (or Gallaecia, whence modern Galicia). From Diocletian's Tetrarchy (AD 284) onwards, the south of remaining Tarraconensis was again split off as Carthaginensis, and probably then too the Balearic Islands and all the resulting provinces formed one civil diocese under the vicarius for the Hispaniae (that is, the Celtic provinces).

WTF...

If Spanish is your native tongue you are Hispanic. You can pick whatever you want on any dumbass form you'll still be Hispanic. it doesn't clash with being Mexican, Mexican is Hispanic. Mexico, Latin America, Spain, all Hispanic. Spanish language and Spanish or Spanish influenced culture. All Hispanic. The end.

YOU (a Mexican) saying you're Spanish insted of Hispanic is more stupid, since you're not native to Spain. In fact it's annoying when Puerto Ricans or Mexicans say they're "Spanish".


YOU'RE THE BASTARD OFFSPRING OF THE SPANIARDS! THAT'S IT BITCH!

[..Compa..]

[..Compa..]

You could call yourself what ever you want, I was just correcting you on the origin of the word.
