Best Answer

Argentina went to war with the United Kingdom in 1982 for control over the Falklands Islands, (Malvinas). The Argentine junta did not expect a military response from Britain who was seen, in the wake of the loss of empire, to be a broken back power. However the forceful response of the Thatcherite government, and the application of superior naval power, liberated the islands and ultimately brought by Galtieri's government.
