In 1816, the United Provinces of the Rio Plata declared their independence

from Spain. After Bolivia, Paraguay, and Uruguay went their separate ways,

the area that remained became Argentina. The country's population and culture

were heavily shaped by immigrants from throughout Europe, but most

particularly Italy and Spain, which provided the largest percentage of

newcomers from 1860 to 1930. Up until about the mid-20th century, much ofArgentina's history was dominated by periods of internal political conflict

between Federalists and Unitarians and between civilian and military factions.

Democracy returned in 1983 after a failed bid to seize the Falkland Islands byforce, and has persisted despite numerous challenges, the most formidable of

which was a severe economic crisis in 2001-02 that led to violent public

protests and the successive resignations of several presidents.
