The Falkland Islands debate

The Malvinas were Spanish first and Argentinian later (since 1816) and when the British took control of the island they expelled the argentinian who lived there.  It's not about how far it is from its coasts. IT'S ABOUT THEY WERE TAKEN BY FORCE BY A COLONIALIST EMPIRE.

Just out of curiosity: Is that what they (officially?) teach you in Argentina, or some rogue teacher told you so, or are you smoking something you shouldn't?
