what are the sources for this information?

Some of this information seems to be outdated. The poverty rate is way too high and I don't really think it is among the the top 10 poorest. Also there is data collected from 1995. Today the literacy rate is higher and now stands around 84 percent. Not 79 percent as stated from 1995.

The army that established a settlement in 1524 comprised primarily of other indigenous nations so referring to it as solely European isn't entirely correct. It also explains why nowadays the majority of the Salvadorean population isn't European either. The native population and biracials, from the outset or early on, played a major role in the colonization era.

'In the case of these Arab-Salvadorans, although not all the families arrived together, they were the ones that lead the economy in the country.’

Where is the source for the assertive assertion that this particular minority ‘lead the economy’ in the country? While it’s true that several Salvadoreans of Arab ancestry have done quite well in business, there are many more Salvadoreans of other backgrounds with successful businesses as well so it's highly unlikely that that claim is correct — Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.59.117.190 (talk) 14:18, 10 September 2020 (UTC)

CIA World Factbook Reliabilty

As discussed a number of times The CIA World Factbook is not used as a Reliable Source on Wikipedia since it does not cite its sources nor can be independently verified. Also there is no ethnic division in Latin America between self-defined Mestizos and Whites. It is pointless to provide estimates. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_World_Factbook#Factual — Preceding unsigned comment added by Huasteca (talk • contribs) 12:17, 17 March 2021 (UTC)

If CIA World Factbook is unreliable, then you should instead find a better source, rather than erase everything Cobaltous (talk) 18:56, 20 March 2021 (UTC)

The point is that there is no reliable source dividing Salvadorans between "whites" and "mestizos" - certainly not quantifying them. White isn't even a biological concept in Latin America and "mestizo" is a term which is used in the abstract rather than referring to a specific group of people. Being one or the other is subjective and one of self-perception and sometimes ideology. Some people may or may not wish to identify as white in differing contexts. There is certainly no internal racial boundary within the country. Salvadorans may also be percieved as white in some (most) countries and as non-white in others - namely the US.
