Sharing the bulk of the Southern Cone with Chile to the west, the country is also bordered by Bolivia and Paraguay to the north, Brazil to the northeast, Uruguay and the South Atlantic Ocean to the east, and the Drake Passage to the south. With a mainland area of 2,780,400 km2 (1,073,500 sq mi),[B] Argentina is the eighth-largest country in the world, the fourth largest in the Americas, the second largest in South America after Brazil, and the largest Spanish-speaking nation by area. The sovereign state is subdivided into twenty-three provinces and one autonomous city, Buenos Aires, which is the federal capital of the nation as decided by Congress. The provinces and the capital have their own constitutions, but exist under a federal system. Argentina claims sovereignty over part of Antarctica, the Falkland Islands (Spanish: Islas Malvinas), and South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands NATIONAL FLAG: The flag of Argentina is a triband, composed of three equally wide horizontal bands coloured light blue and white. There are multiple interpretations on the reasons for those colors. The flag was created by Manuel Belgrano, in line with the creation of the Cockade of Argentina, and was first raised at the city of Rosario on February 27, 1812, during the Argentine War of Independence. The National Flag Memorial was later built on the site. The First Triumvirate did not approve the use of the flag, but the Asamblea del Año XIII allowed the use of the flag as a war flag. It was the Congress of Tucumán which finally designated it as the national flag, in 1816. A yellow Sun of May was added to the center in 1818, which according to anarchist Diego Abad de Santillán, the sun represents the Incan god of the sun Inti., but its true symbolism is a matter of debate between vexillologists.

Literacy 99% (2018) BILATERAL RELATIONS BETWEEN INDIA AND ARGENTINA India and Argentina are not historically, culturally and linguistically connected but when we trace back India’s relation with Argentina it comes out to be very old. It started when Rabindranath Tagore visited Argentina in 1924. During pre-independence India, World War II brought serious food shortages to India, with the prospect of a deadly famine looming in 1946. Argentina responding to an Indian appeal, played a critical role in exporting corn and wheat during this challenging period. In early 20th century, first Indians to arrive in Argentina were Sikhs from the Indian state of Punjab who came to Argentina to work on a British-built railroad. Argentina seemed the most promising of South American nations, and so they stayed, eventually concentrating in the north, which reminded them of the scrappy mountains and plains of Punjab. Last year, India and Argentina celebrated 70 years of bilateral relations. Both countries relations are an example of a strong tie in political, economic, agriculture, scientific, nuclear energy and technological cooperation including Antarctic research and cultural cooperation.

A colored rag borne above troops and hoisted on forts and ships. It appears to serve the same purpose as certain signs that one sees on vacant lots in London—‘Rubbish may be shot here.’” Ambrose Bierce2 The power of the flag as a national symbol was all too evident in the 1990s: the constitutional debate over flag burning in the United States; the violent removal of the communist seal from the Romanian flag; and the adoption of the former czarist flag by the Russian Federation. In the United States, Texas alone possesses a flag and seal directly descended from revolution and nationhood. The distinctive feature of INSIDE / SOMMAIRE Page both the state flag and seal, the Lone Star, is famous worldwide because of the brief Editor’s Note / Note de la rédaction 2 existence of the Republic of Texas (March 2, 1836, to December 29, 1845).3 For all Solid Vexillology 2 the Lone Star’s fame, however, there is much misinformation about it.

    Study Guide Mexico History, Culture & Music Did you know there are ancient pyramids and volcanoes in Mexico? How about that Mexico gave the world chocolate? Or that the sport of rodeo is based on Mexico’s national sport, the charreada ? Did you know there are more different species of reptiles and lizards in Mexico than anywhere in the world? Or that every year giant gray whales swim thousands of miles from Alaska to mate in the warm waters off the western coast of Mexico? Here are some other things to know about this fascinating country. History Home to some of the world’s most highly developed early civilizations, Mexico’s known history began over 10,000 years ago when indigenous people populated the country. The Olmec were Mexico’s first complex organized society, appearing around 1200 BC in the southeastern region of the country. They were followed by the Maya, Toltec and Aztec cultures. In the early 1500s, the Spanish explorer Hernando Cortes conquered the Aztec capital of Tenochtilan and Mexico became a Spanish colony for 300 years. In 1821, Father Miguel Hidalgo wrote the “Grito de Dolores,” Mexico’s declaration of independence which ignited a decade long war with Spain resulting in Mexico’s establishment as an independent nation in 1821. Today, Mexico is a federal republic of 31 states, governed by a Constitution with free and open elections and separate legislative, executive and judicial branches of government.

    WAR FLAGS INTO PEACE FLAGS: THE RETURN OF CAPTURED MEXICAN BATTLE FLAGS DURING THE TRUMAN ADMINISTRATION by ETHAN M. ANDERSON B.A., South Dakota State University, 2008 A THESIS submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree MASTER OF ARTS Department of History College of Arts and Sciences KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY Manhattan, Kansas 2010 Approved by: Major Professor Charles W. Sanders, Jr. Copyright ETHAN M. ANDERSON 2010 Abstract On September 13, 1950, in a culmination of three years of efforts by organizations and individuals inside and outside the Harry S. Truman administration, 69 captured battle flags from the Mexican-American War were formally returned to the Mexican government at a ceremony in Mexico City. The events surrounding the return of flags to Mexico occurred in two distinct phases. The first was a small, secretive, and largely symbolic return of three flags conceived and carried out by high-ranking U.S. government officials in June 1947. The second large-scale, public return of the remaining flags in the custody of the War Department was initiated by the American Legion and enacted by the United States Congress. Despite their differences, both returns were heavily influenced by contemporary events, primarily the presidential election of 1948 and the escalation of the Cold War. Also, although the second return was much more extensive than the President originally intended, it was only through his full support that either return was accomplished. In the decades since 1950, historians have either ignored the return of Mexican battle flags or focused instead on Truman’s wreath laying at the monument to the niños héroes in Mexico City in March 1947.
