Argentina

The argentina is country south american, Is the second country more big de south American. The general Jose de San Martin free Chile y Perú the Spanish. From 1887 to 1930 increment the export and the live label. The military governing from years 50s to 70s, during those years the economy decrease. In 1973, Perón returned to the presidency, but he died within a year of assuming power.

Argentina the divided distinct regions PAMPA, Gran Chaco, Mesopotamia, Patagonia, Cuyo.

Argentina benefits from rich natural resources, a highly literate population, an export-oriented agricultural sector, and a diversified industrial base.

country historically had a large middle class compared to other Latin American countries, but this segment of the population was decimated by a succession of economic crises.

Since 2002, there has been an improvement in the situation of the poorer sectors and a strong rebound of the middle class.
Since the late 1970s, the country piled up public debt and was plagued by bouts of high inflation. In 1991, the government pegged the peso to the U.S. dollar and limited the growth in the monetary base. The government then embarked on a path of trade liberalization, deregulation, and privatization. Inflation dropped and the gross domestic product grew, but external economic shocks and failures of the system diluted its benefits, causing it to crumble in slow motion, from 1995 and up to the collapse in 2001.

In 2003, import substitution policies and soaring exports coupled with lower inflation and expansive economic measures, triggered a surge in the GDP. It was repeated in 2004 and 2005, creating millions of jobs and encouraging internal consumption.

The situation by 2006 was further improved. The economy grew 8.8% in 2003, 9.0% in 2004, 9.2% in 2005 and 2006 was on the same track (predictions are between 8.5% and 9.0%), though inflation, estimated at around 10 to 12%, has become an issue again, and income distribution is still considerably unequal.
