There’s oil and gas offshore in and around the British Falkland Islands, known as Las Malvinas by Argentina. To regain the ‘Lost Sisters’ is a national cause and one that most of Argentina’s Latin neighbors support. In 1982, the British let their guard down and the Argentine military dictatorship ordered an invasion of the islands — which was considered a huge success until the British task force arrived eight weeks later and made short work of the Argentine army and reclaimed the territory. This in turn led to the fall of the dictatorship. If the Argentine invasion had happened in the present decade, Britain would not have been in a position to retake the islands, as it currently has no functioning aircraft carriers, a situation that will be remedied by 2020. Despite the lure of oil and gas, an Argentine invasion of the Falklands is unlikely since Argentina is now a democracy and knows that the vast majority of Falkland Islanders wish to remain under British control. — Tim Marshall
