Only people from Spanish-Speaking Central America should identify as Hispanic
I was under the impression it also applies to the Spanish-speaking American islands and North/South America.
ETA: And it’s controversial whether Brazil is counted.
The Spanish-Speaking American islands are in Central America, just like England and Sicily are in Europe.
Chile and Argentina, IIRC, are not Hispanic countries.
The term derives from Hispanic, meaning a resident of Hispanola, the island which now contains Haiti and The Dominican Republic.
