    The document summarizes the racial groups that have populated Nicaragua over time. The Spanish were the first colonizers, arriving in the 16th century and establishing cities along the Pacific and central regions. A second group were African slaves brought by the Portuguese and English, though they eventually mixed with indigenous and European populations. A third group were German immigrants who began arriving in the late 19th century, establishing communities in cities like Estelí, Jinotega, and Matagalpa. According to the 2005 census, the majority (97.6%) of Nicaraguans are considered mestizos of mixed European and indigenous descent.
