Hello everyone it’s Jeremias again,
Today is Friday, 15 August 2008 and I’ll write about my country (Argentine, officially the Argentine Republic).
My country is 2,780,403 km² in area and the population is about 40,677,348 in 2008, the capital is Buenos Aires.
The officially language is Spanish and the actual president is Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner, she works in the Pink House and lives in the “Quinta Precidencial”.
The Tango Music is Argentina’s traditional music and Carlos Gardel is one of the most famous Tango.
The most popular sport in Argentina is soccer, in second place, its tennis, and after that, rugby and basketball.
The soccer’s national team is twice FIFA World Cup Champion and one-time Olympic Gold medalist (also fourteen-time Copa América winners). Also our famous icon is Maradona, recognised by FIFA as the best play of the siglo.
To contuine I want to tell you a little about the food and drink of Argentina.
The typical foods in Argentine are asado, empanadas, sandwiches of miga, locro, dulce de leche.
The most famous are wine and the meat.

If you visit Argentina, call me and we can go to eat the best of the worlds asado!!!!
