Argentina

"Argentina is famous for football, its idol footballer Lionel Messi, who is my favorite, Diego Armando Maradona, its pride of winning the World Cup and the Copa America, beating Brazil in anything, its unique culture, tangos, wines, mating, the Pampas, Gauchos, Rio de la Plata, and penguins, and infamous for Macri, Kirchner, inflation, Kirchnerism, corruption, the Citizen's Unity Party, people who hate Tini, the British control on the Falkland Islands, blowing major finals, and even racism. Now something terrible could've happened here in Argentina today."

--Su Ji-Hoon, The Wrath of Megatron

Argentina (/ˌɑːrdʒənˈtiːnə/; Spanish: [aɾxenˈtina]), officially the Argentine Republic (Spanish: República Argentina), is a federal republic located mostly in the southern half of South America. Sharing the bulk of the Southern Cone with its neighbor Chile to the west, the country is also bordered by Bolivia and Paraguay to the north, Brazil to the northeast, Uruguay and the South Atlantic Ocean to the east, and the Drake Passage to the south. With a mainland area of 2,780,400 km2 (1,073,500 sq mi), Argentina is the eighth-largest country in the world, the second largest in Latin America, and the largest Spanish-speaking nation. It is subdivided into twenty-three provinces (Spanish: provincias, singular provincia) and one autonomous city (ciudad autónoma), Buenos Aires, which is the federal capital of the nation (Spanish: Capital Federal) as decided by Congress. The provinces and the capital have their own constitutions, but exist under a federal system. Argentina claims sovereignty over part of Antarctica, the Falkland Islands (Spanish: Islas Malvinas), and South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands.
