Argentina is a diverse country. Just the word Argentina urges up pictures of alone gauchos journeying over the Pampas’s endless plains, of sultry characters locked in tango’s tempestuous embrace and enthusiastic football fans supporting the legendary Maradona.
Argentina is a country located mostly in the southern half of South America. With a mainland area of almost 2.8 million square kilometers (~1.1 million sq mi), Argentina is the 8th-largest country globally and the 4th largest in the Americas, the 2nd-largest in South America behind Brazil, and the biggest Spanish-speaking country by territory. Argentina is partitioned into 23 provinces and one autonomous Buenos Aires – the capital of the nation.
Argentina has its roots in the Spanish colonization of the continent during the sixteenth century. Later, several European migration waves, mostly Italians and Spaniards, entirely reshape their cultural and demographic outlook. Nowadays, 62.5 percent of the population has full or partial Italian ancestry, and the Argentine culture has notable joints to the Italian culture.
