Argentina in South America occupies most of the southern part of the continent. As the eighth largest country in the world, Argentina occupies a wider area than Mexico and the United States. It includes huge plains, deserts, tundra and forests, high mountains, rivers and thousands of miles of ocean coastline. Argentina also claims part of the Antarctic continent and several islands in the South Atlantic, including Islas Malvinas sponsored by the UK.

South America (Colombia - Argentina) is very cheap compared to Europe, except for the four countries of Uruguay, Argentina, Chile and Brazil. Peru and Bolivia make the most affordable cake (you can get there easily with a ten dollar budget a day). * Uruguay's illusion: If you like credit cards, if you use a credit card you can get discounts anytime, anywhere :) Please always reserve in advance according to the season. Please press in the sky. * I have not noticed the incident, there is no space in any dormitory in the city, it is only a few hundred euro dormitory, so I have to leave the big city

Compared to the above countries, the inflation rate in Argentina looks rather moderate. Currently it is 10.90%. However, during the 12 months through April 1990, the annual inflation rate in Argentina was the highest, reaching an amazing 20,262%. This will definitely constitute hyperinflation! Using US dollars for translation, items that cost $ 1 in May 1989 will cost $ 20.62 a year later. Argentina fell into recession from the end of 1998 until 2002. During this period, the gross domestic product in the first half of 2002 fell to -16.3%. This recession preceded several times of economic contraction between 1974 and 1990. Today, the economic situation in Argentina has improved by 5.50% of GDP, and the unemployment rate slightly exceeds 6.40%. However, the inflation rate is still too high and its short-term money market interest rate has also risen 14.73%. Nonetheless, at least the inflation rate is lower than the interest rate, so the actual return on investor's funds will be positive.
