argentine for falkland islands... small, useless islands near the end of the world.
In 1982, the militar junta (dictadure that "dissapeared" more than 30000 people deemed left-wing "subversives", impulsed and loved by the US during it's active years) losing extreme popularity,Galtieri's forces invaded the lightly-defended British Falkland Islands in April 1982, and he declared the "Malvinas" a province of Argentina — as they had been according to Argentina from 1820 to 1833, before Britain re-gained control over them.
Galtieri sended conscripts. lots. poorly equiped kids against one of the greatest armies of the world.
When these boys were starving, freezing and getting shot, Galtieri's media lied to people (ESTAMOS GANANDO---we're winning)... the good thing is, whith the defeat, people FINALLY kicked the asses of the "milicos" and since that moment, Argentina has beeen ruled by corrupt presidents

Pair of islands in the South Atlantic right next to the Argentinean Coast. A war was fought over them in the 80's, Argentinean soldiers were equipped with WWII arms while British soldiers had the latest military technology of that time (Duh!, who could possibly win? I mean Harriers against Pucaras? C'mon you gotta be kiddin me!). The fact is that the Brits decided to take away something that is not theirs just because they wanted to (like they did with lots and lots of other spots all-around the world). The current name of the islands is "Falkland Islands" since they are under British control, while the real name of them is "Islas Malvinas" since Argentina is the real owner.
Anyways, i dont think none of us is really interested in the Malvinas. There's nothing there, and like the other guy said: it's freaking cold.

Anything you gave away but now you want it back and are prepared to do anything to get it back, even if it means losing everything.
Named after the Argentine name for the Fawkland Islands which they ruled from 1820 to 1833 and now want back.

Barbara is my Malvinas, I should have never gave her away, I am going to dump the troupe of Folie Bergers cancan girls who have declared undying love for me, and get her back even though she has diseases science hasnt got a name for.
Those maracas are my Malvinas, I am going to cancel the world tour and travel to the South Pole to get them back from the vulcanologist I gifted them to.

A malvina is a type of scottish cheese. Often found bullying grade two children with accents, the malvina is anything but exquisite. Finds entertainment in leprachaun hunting underneath elementary schools. Avoid at all costs.
