[Brazil](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colonial_Brazil)
Majority of people are either pardo (mixed white/black/indigenous) or white indigenous population is less than 1%). First mixed race president was in 1909.
[Argentina](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colonial_Argentina)
80ish% European descent 16% indigenous
Also it's worth pointing out that both countries speak European languages and are majority Catholic.
