ive noticed that in most of the hispanic countries in the caribbean & south america till this day are so big on having ties to spain. which is weird because i usually hear of spaniards looking down on hispanics.

i found it interesting because people in north america could care less about having ties to the UK or at least don't make a big deal about it

I disagree with you sir. The Latin Americans don't "go out of their way" to show their relationship to Spain just because they ARE related to Spain and on top of it very much so.

Actually Mexicans and most other Latin Americans hate Spaniards and don't want anything to do with them.

The OP must be talking about the Chicanos who say they are Spanish because they think Spanish must be synonymous to Mexican.

More than Spain itself, I'd say a big chunk of people from Latam, like to share their "connection" to Europe.
For some reason Hispanics loveeeee and look up to Europe like a god continent. I've met countless people from all over the region, who would tell you about their French last name, or the great grandmother who came from Italy, or how at home they keep a family seal from Spain, among others examples.

Hate is a big word. I don't think we all hate Spain, although I've noticed we keep blaming the Spaniards for what the conquistadors took from the continent 500 years ago. Which I foud I bit strange, since you never hear Canadians or Australians blame the British for their wrong doings.
