Background :
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
of Argentina's history was dominated by periods of internal political conflict between
Federalists and Unitarians and between civilian and military factions. After World War II,
an era of Peronist authoritarian rule and interference in subsequent governments was
followed by a military junta that took power in 1976. Democracy returned in 1983, 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 resignation of several interim
presidents. The economy has recovered strongly since bottoming out in 2002.
Religions :
Nominally Roman Catholic 92% (less than 20% practicing), Protestant 2%,
