I would love for these kinds of vids to be about lesser done countries than the big ones ( russa,China,Brazil, South Africa) like the countries with huge potential like India ( or the subcontinent) Indonesia, DR Congo, Tanzania, Sudan before the south split. Ethiopia if it had a coastline, or Central African republic. Keep up the great work!

But what stood out the most in my opinion was and will always be its people. They are such funny and friendly folks, believe me. Most of the times you engage a conversation with an argentinian you will probably end up laughing your a** out 😂. This also demonstrates how resilient they are as people. Despite all the ups and downs in the economy, socially and in politics I think every other country facing what they face on a daily basis would result in massive suicides or violent turmoils, but they laugh and joke their way out of it. They wake up every morning to go to work and add their two cents in the quest of making Argentina great again. Even if they often say they are doomed or not worth being a superpower, or even arrogant, their way of living life is unique and I think we all should learn from them.

That was definitely a geographical advantage both strategically and economically.

No it isn't a huge factor. Argentina can use Chile for West coast transport and they could use the Panama Canal. The problem with Argentina is that it was always centrally managed economy that focused on agriculture and never diversified. Argentinians are "tomorrow we work people" and expect government services to fill their needs. For example, instead of investing in more oil production and refining to lower prices, the government subsidizes gas prices. It is a lazy country with no belief in work ethic. They always pursued the policies for autarky, therefore hostile to foreigner investment. Even today, being part of Mercosur, the flimsy economic agreement does not want foreigners to come in. Despite being supposedly literate, they are illiterate in many other subjects.

Nice video! Also super happy you’re using metric 🙏

You can say this about dozens of countries. Corruption takes the life away from any nation that is rich in natural resources.

Good video. One point tough, while it is true the agricultural elite dragged down industrialization, that part is incomplete. The big ranching estancias were for cattle raising while most of the agricultural lands were colonized by the mass immigration waves by the late XIX century with the state giving land or selling it for cents to families and communities with the condition to settle. Most of the current center population is descendant of that. In my province there was nothing, being the 2/3rd rich one currently. Santa Fe was just 2 cities and a few travel posts, rets just millions of hectares of wild grasslands. The first agricultural colony was Colonia Esperanza settled by swiss farmers being the first to produce large scale wheat. Before that Argentina did not have agriculture, it was just millions of cows and horses free roaming ranched by gauchos. My town was one built in 4 years by a Italian who bought land ,brought 150 families settled and people started farming in small plots meanwhile the founder donated lands for the railroad line and station. This history is repeated all over the pampean plain. Also by the end of the 19th century those immigrants started to create local industries, mainly for agriculture with Industrias Schneider being the first foundry in the 1870s making tilling machines and other things in my province. Like that it was around. Rapid industrialization happened where it were demand by private initiative and then heavy industries and military production with state programs and private contractors. WWI and the crack of the 29 hit hard on technology acquisition and profits. Then came political instability and state intervention with nationalization waves that broke havoc and destroyed all the progress there could be. Extra note is that the north of the county with higher temps now produce a lot of crops too, in lands taken to natural forests which isn't that good in the long run.

They'd have to get rid of a lot of non government corruption as well. As it is most of the heavy lifting is forcefully managed by both a Worker's union and a Trucker's union that keep a stranglehold on industrial production and it's neighbouring logistics. And even if these weren't around, the main agrarian cabal can singlehandedly freeze the only reliable income the country gets on a monthly basis. Point being, anyone who wants to attain and retain power with any level of governability is forced, by virtue of the balance of power within the country, to get and stay in bed with a number of bad actors that don't have the country's future prosperity in mind. There are alternatives to all of this. Argentina has an enormous potential as a provider of digitally exported services as goods, and the few sustainable industries that have sprouted outside the more traditional markets all come from this sector.

Similar history, but different results. With fewer resources, Uruguay has nearly double the per capita GDP. Chile is another example of a country that doing pretty well, though they admittedly have better resources than Uruguay. If I'm not mistaken, they were also subject to the Monroe Doctrine, so I'm really confused by that statement. The idea that you have to challenge the US is for power just false. It's not a zero sum game; just run your country responsibly and develop your own economy. The mythical "they" have nothing against other powers in their region (Canada, for example). In fact, I'm sure the US feels that it would be useful to have more stable trading partners in the region. But a culture of corruption, irresponsible spending, and dependency on the government (or any other group) always, always leads to downfall. Honestly, Mexico and Brazil should also be powers, but they have all had similar issues.

Ty for using the metric system

This video is very informative about the history of Argentina. Many people today are unaware of how prosperous Argentina was from about the 1860s to the 1930s. Much of the credit for Argentina's prosperous during that era should be given to Domingo Sarmiento who served as the second president of the country in the 1860s. Sarmiento was able to unify the nation, and he also championed education. Sarmiento had spent time in the United States, and he looked at the traits and culture of the U.S.A. and concluded that the American model was a better plan for Argentina to follow compared to what he saw in Europe. To a large degree Sarmiento was the architect of a very strong Argentine economy that was based on agriculture from the 1860s thru the 1930s. This video correctly points out that the decision by Argentine leaders not to industrialize eventually caught up with the country over time and led to decline.

Thanks for the possitive view at the end, argentinians are hopeful people but we are also divided against ourselves into 2 types of political parties that haven´t done any good for our people. One of them likes to perpetuate poverty and the other one wants to forget about the poor. The middle class is always in the verge of going down and the rich as in every country stay rich. So we are like a mobious tape going to the beginning when we think we are progressing. Anyway, somebody said in darkness any light is a strong light so we´ll see how things go in the next presidency.

china always has been the richest, the most powerful country for last 3000 years except last 150 years.

The video points out the evidence that things aren't so good in Argentina and that this has been a long time in coming. However, while it points out that the initial strong start of the country had significant weaknesses, it refrains from pointing out why they failed as history moved forward, instead remarking how global and US downturns affected them and that printing money to cover debts was necessary (was it? did it ever solve anything?). That last part is the real problem. For some reason creditors never value what comes out of a printer. They want the value agreed upon. As soon as that fundamental principle is realized, then priorities for resources can be made. Otherwise, the government will think they have needs that are really wants. When an individual does this they become poor. When a government does this a nation becomes poor. That is why Argentina has failed. That is what the video doesn't point out.

2:20 "Many of the solutions (to inflation) rely on government action" Government action is what gave us all inflation.

Im from Argentina and I believe that another major problem is the huge class divide. When the country was formed they gave a select number of people "latifundios" which are basically enormous lands, making It so the whole country was owned by 50 people. This was the first real notisable divide but It continúes with what he can see with what you said about Peron being kicked out by the Rich people that werent Happy with the poor gaining money, because there can't be Rich without the poor. This is still present today as in a recent poll done by the goverment 50% of the population is poor.ñ, it's sad really. Excelent video, specially for someone that isnt from the country 🩵🇦🇷
