8) Even if southern cone had 3 or 5 millions (pure indigenous) population it will still way less than that of Mexico , Peru, North Brazil or even Colombia
No, it would not be less. It would be a lot more. Chile alone has a greater indigenous population than Colombia despite being a smaller country and a far less populated one: +2 millon versus 1.3 approx. found in Colombia.
Chile has a strong indigenous heritage and its capital city was founded by the Incas. Overall Chile is closer to Peru than it is to Argentina or Uruguay culturally and ethnically wise.
European architecture in Colombia is mostly Spanish, Spanish influence in Colombia is strong but you can also find countless neighbourhoods resembling the British Isles in cities like Bogota. In the 20th century Buenos Aires followed French architectural trends, Bogota followed English ones. The moorland and the evergreen countryside known as Sabana de Bogota surrounding the city add up to the feeling. They feel just like the English countryside and the Scottish highlands, respectively.

Bogotá and Medellin have really impressive British architecture all over both cities. I standed really surprised when visited both cities early this year... I thought it would be much more like some random place in Castilla y Leon.
what European city does ny looks like? belgrade? NY looks nothing like Europe.
That's true . I always leave Europe alone . No former European colonies soil like the USA , Canada , Australia or Argentina can be compared to Europe itself . Yes there are similarities among European cities and some cities like Buenos Aires , New York or Montreal but Europe is still very much on a different level . Politically, in architecture, mentally , regarding human rights and quality of life , without the need to mention the economic and social aspects . I myself live in Europe and I could never go back in live in the USA for instance .
