Historia de Argentina

Around 10,000 B.C., there were approximatly 20 indigenous groups living in the area that is today Argentina.

Spanish explorer Juan Díaz de Solís arrived in Argentina in 1516 quickly making Argentina a Spanish land.

In 1816, Argentina won independence from Spain and became prosperous during the 1800s as a wave of European immigrants from Germany, Italy, and England arrived.

Historia de Argentina

Between 1857 & 1939 3.5 million people immigrated to Argentina from Italy, Spain, Germany, English, Switzerland, Austria, Norway, Syria and many more places. By 1914, 30% of the Argentinean population was born in another country.

From 1976-1983, Argentina was under military rule.

Today, Argentina has a democratic government

Immigrant Influence Spanish spoken in Argentina is very different from that

of Spain. Each region has its own dialect Argentine Spanish is also heavily influenced by Italian.

People often greet each other with the Italian buongiorno rather than buenos días and will say ciao for goodbye.

The Tú form is rarely used and is replaced by the Argentine vos.

Another completely unique language is called lufardo, a mix of many immigrant languages build around castellono, which allows people of diverse backgrounds to communicate.

Nuclear Power Located 70 miles north of Buenos Aires, Argentina’s

1st nuclear power plant at Atucha was built in 1974 and handles approximately 7% of Argentina’s power needs.

During the 1980s & 90s, more nuclear plants were built but the disposal of waste became a problem.

Construction of a nuclear-waste site began in 1986 but quickly met opposition as citizens became angry and concerned about during nuclear waste near their homes.

The project has been delayed until 2030 meaning the disposal of nuclear waste remains a problem today.
