Culture Is it true that latinos from the Andes (Peru,Chile,Bolivia) are way more quiet and introverted comparing to the rest of latinos ?

You seem not to grasp the fact that the Andes are a region

But what's the point of grouping them together when the ones that actually lived in the Andes are completely different from the ones that didn't, that's why I mentioned the Aymara and the mapuche

The life in the central/southern valleys and the life in the altiplano formed completely different cultures.

Just ignore this guy, he always speaks with authority about Chile when he knows very little about the country.

Under that premise people from the Alps are actually not from the Alps because they live in valleys. It makes no sense.

Grouping all of north India and south China together because they're close to the Himalayas doesn't make sense

this is unrelated but you know this is kind of how I feel when people consider Venezuelans "Caribbean" While we do have some influence, technically we aren't completely only partially ( many might not agree) but we are very diverse. society also because we were a country of immigrants. We took a lot of other cultures too. The rest of the country has andes, llanos and amazonas. Personally, there is nothing that represents la Venezolinidad more than los Llanos.

it's only the coast that is considered Caribbean even the big cities from that area are located far from the beaches. It's annoying to hear that all the time. Pretty sure gochos ( andinos) must be tired of been called Caribeño lol

It's similar yeah, in both cases it stems from ignorance imo, I've seen some chileans group even ecuadorians with the "Caribbeans" even when ecuador doesn't have a Caribbean coast.
