Welcome, Argentines!

Welcome to our Argentine readers!

Let's see, what are some interesting things about Argentina? Well, Wikipedia points out that UN data shows Argentina with the highest Human Development Index level and Gross Domestic Product (GDP) per capita in purchasing power parity in Latin America.

We also learn from the same Wikipedia article that illegal immigration is a concern in Argentina. "The Argentine government estimates that 750,000 inhabitants lack official documents ... ."

When it comes to notable people, does the name Jorge Luis Borges ring a bell?

Finally, do they meet my measure of a cool country? That is, do they have monkeys? Yes.
