The Malvinas aka Falkland Islands. As we all know, Argentina tried taking it back from the Brits back in the 1982 and was defeated soundly in a matter of weeks by the Brits.
You'd think that is the end of that. But no they just can't give it up. Therefore you see plenty of signs, street names and even Hotels name after the Malvinas. I even saw the Malvinas listed as a part of Argentina in some maps around town.
As an Englishman told me in Ushuaia. England would more then happy to hand the Falklands back to the Argentine... But it is the Falklanders themselves whom do not want this to happen! LOL!

To take the islands "back" they'd have to have owned them in the first place. The only people to have ever owned them other than the Brits are the Dutch.
