Argentina still claims sovereignty over the Falklands despite being a British Overseas Territory since 1833, and the islanders voted overwhelmingly to remain part of the UK.
But Argentina claims it acquired the Falklands from Spain in 1816 before Britain asserted its dominance.
In 1982, the archipelago was invaded by Argentine forces who were repulsed in a ten-week war ordered by Margaret Thatcher and the islands returned to British control.
