South American nation
Among the best basketball nations in the World, ranked up there with the USA and Spain.
Primary language is Spanish
Population about 40 million
I think it's the second-largest country in South America in terms of land-mass, with Brazil being the first.
That's all that comes to mind.

Uhhh...
It's in South America, the flag has a weird sun on it, kind of an arid place, from what I read, there seems to be a somewhat big amount of drug dealings. Also, home to manifestations, bank robberies, Maradona and clecricó.

That your claims to the Falkland Islands are completely daft as the falklands were in fact a British colony/settlement before Argentina was a nation. I think that once you get over that, we can all move on.
On a better note you have an absolutely amazing steakhouse called Argentos where I live. It's far too expensive but its really good.

You speak spanish there? And probably heavily Catholic like most of Mexico is.
Have your own unique architecture that dates back hundreds of years.
If your spanish probably have VERY good food.
And if your spanish your country is probably REALLY into football/Soccer.
Ummm thats about it... I personally dont like Brazilians because they = like 90% of all the hackers in every game i have ever played... Not saying Argentina is the same way...

Argentina invaded our land in the 80s and in the same decade, cheated us out of the world cup. I still think it is a nice plce 
Aw dammit! I was going to say something like that. Of course I've been ninja'd. *cries*careful said:
Actually they could technically be seen as French;shaneriding said:
We found the islands but the French settled there first, we settled later not knowing they had. The Spanish then seized control of the French colony and evicted us giving governing control to the Buenos Aries. Peace was established and we came back with both nations claiming sovereignty. Then we let our claim slip when the American Revolution occurred due to interests in that. We left a plaque asserting our claims. Then Spain left leaving a plaque and Argentina governed the islands. Eventually we returned and established our sovereignty. It was when the UN was formed that Argentina staked its claim fully, but we would only leave if the islanders, of mainly British descent voted for us to leave. They preferred to stay under British territory. This eventually led to the war which we won.
But I would say they are happily ours and until the islanders say otherwise thus it will stay. /Brief history. :-D
OT: There is a strong background of Argentinians having Welsh descent/ being related to the Welsh in some way (A rumour I heard is it true?)
I know you should give up that pansy round ball sport and play more REAL MAN'S FOOTBALL (ie rugby union). You've also had a number of issues with dictators, the collapse of the currency plus that whole nasty business in the Falklands. You got owned by a woman. Good old Maggie.
Argentina, country in South America, capital Buenos Aires. Great Wines, Tango, Football Team (Maradona).
Argentina was neutral, but it had big German minority which harbored Nazis before and after the war (Organisation der ehemaligen SS-Angehörigen).klipton said:
South American Country, had an insane dictator propped up by the US, contains a very wide variety of landscapes, soccer is a big thing, hosted the world cup, and despite a truely dogged attempt to win, you guys ended up getting bitchslapped by Margret Thatcher in teh Flaklands war due to some truely atrocious planning and horrible supply problems on the part of the higher ups.
So in conclusion... not a bad place. Wouldn't build a summer home there, but you guys are alright.
