    • Abstract:
      Argentina, known formally as Republica Argentina (Argenti ne Republic), is the second-largest country in South America by area. It is located in the southern half of the continent and borders the Atlantic Ocean on its eastern side. Its neighbors are Uruguay, Brazil, and Paraguay to the east; Bolivia to the north; and Chile, which runs along its entire western border. Argentina lays claim to the Falkland Islands (or Islas Malvinas) off its southeastern coast, but this is disputed with Great Britain, which oversees the island. Argentina achieved independence from Spain in 1816. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
