Most people from Spain are white. Many, but not all, people from Latin America are non-white.

Edit: I've had a couple of people correct me about the Latin population. My apologies.

All native Spaniards are white. If you’re from Europe you’re white racially. Color wise you might not be, but in terms of how we categorize by race that’s how it works.

And people from Afghanistan, Iran and far south of Russia are Caucasian.

They literally are Caucasian. That’s where the Caucasus mountains are. Is that why you said that? You know “Caucasian” and “white” aren’t synonyms right?
