  21. The History Of Argentina The people who lived in Argentina originally were Indian. The first white people who came to the country were Spanish, and they were looking for gold. After few years they built the city Buenos Aires, but the Indians attacked them and they had to leave the place. Only in 1580 they could build the city again. In the beginning of the 19th century the British were fighting against Spain and tried to attack Buenos Aires. But they didn’t succeed. In 1810 the Argentineans began their revolution against Spain and in 1817 they got their independence. The leader of this revolution was José de San Martín.

  22. In 1943 there was a military revolution and Juan Peron became the leader of the country, until there was another military revolution in 1955. Peron returned to Argentina again in 1973. When he died, in 1974, his second wife Isabel became the president. Between the years 1976 and 1983 the country was under a very cruel military government, and many people who were against the government “disappeared”. In 1982 Argentina fought against Britain in the Falkland Islands (The Malvunas), but lost the war. After the war the military government fell. Today Argentina is enjoying the freedom of democracy.

  23. Culture The tango is a very emotional and dramatic dance, that was born in Buenos Aires in the 19th century. In the 1920s and 1930s, the singer Carlos Gardel made the tango famous around the world. The instruments used to play tango music are: the bandoneón (similar to an accordion), the violin and the guitar. Outside Buenos Aires, other dances are popular, such as the Escondido - the dance of the gauchos.   Jorge Luis Borges (1899-1986) is the most famous writer in Argentina. He wrote short stories. One of his stories, “Kiss of the Spider Woman”, became a famous film.  Argentina's national sport game is fútbol (soccer). The Argentinian national team has become one of the best in the world and won World Cup in 1978 and 1986.
