A South American country with a surprisingly tiny number of pure Native American people and mestizos. Known for its large Spanish and Italian population, its warm people, and also for its current economic depression and several corrupt leaders. "Don't cry for me, Argentina...
the truth is I never left you, all through my wild days, my mad existance, I kept my promise- don't keep your distance..." -From Andrew Lloyd-Webber's musical, "Evita". A country that shouldn't cry for Eva Peron (despite that the historical Eva never said that). |

WE DON'T WISH WE WERE ENGLISH.
The Argentinean population is of European descent: Italian, Spanish, German, French, etc. We don't pretend to be europeans. Although because of the european ancestry (btw not common in the rest of Latin America), we feel closer to the european culture than to the latin american one. at lest thats how i feel. And yes, there are arrogant people and cheaters, just like everywhere else, but not everybody's like that.(and i bet the one who said we cheat at football is english) argentina is a beautiful country <3

A South American country with an extremely high ratio of slutty catholic schoolgirls who seem to be extremely welcoming of foreign dick (and local too, I guess)
Competent in sports, said to have arrogant natives, with an economy always "recovering amazingly from" or "sinking in" crisis, plenty of great beef, but that should always be remembered for the hotness and sluttynes of its women. Argentina has soooo many hot women, they are pretty slutty too, in a good way.

a team that has defeated time and time again the brits. "Hey when's the last time England won the World Cup?"
"Years before the Argentines won in 1978 and 1986" "What team did England play against when Beckham was red carded in 1998? That's right, Argentina." |

Argentina is a Republic in South America. It's Capital is Buenos Aires, and it's second largest city is Córdoba. more...
Argentina gained its independence from Spain in 1816, thanks to General Jose de San Martin. Until the 1920's, Argentina was a very rich nation with a giant immigrant population consisting of Italians, Jews, Syrians, Lebanese, Germans, Croats, Spaniards, Swedes, Danes, and countless other people. Unfortunately in the 1930's, the economy soured and the nation eventually became a dictatorship. In the 1940's, Dictator Juan Peron was a good friend of Adolf Hitler, and Mussolini. Even though they didn't ally with the Axis, they tended to side with it. After the fall of the Axis, Argentina was under a peronist (simular fascist) dictatorship. In the 1970's, the Argentine government led the dirty war. Under which, tens of thousands of people who possessed marxist ideas, or anti fascist literature were kidnapped and tortured to death. Some, like my uncle, survived, but about 30,000 people died under this. Often undernoted, about 40% of the victims were Jews,. After a war with Britain over the Falkland Islands (which both sides still claim), Argentina's dictatorship was seen as weak, and eventually crumbled in the 1980's. The 1st elected president, Raul Alfonsin lead argentina into a better direction. Raul Alfonsin recently died of lung cancer (1927-2009). Soon after his reign though, Argentina has gone through a reccession, leading to hyper inflation. However this ended ... |
