Argentine Americans are raised and educated citizens of the United States although not all U.S born, from the southeast South American nation of Argentina.

Argentines are just one of over 20 Hispanic national groups — Argentina being the second largest Hispanic country located in South America after Colombia by population. While other U.S. citizens or residents with national origins in any of the Hispanic countries of the Americas may be closely related to Spaniards and Italians in language and culture, Argentine Americans show as much Italian as Spanish influence, which is noticeable (for example) in the Rioplatense Spanish dialect of the natives of Buenos Aires and the southern littoral region. Unlike many regions in the Americas, the population of Argentina is mainly of European descent, [ [https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/geos/ar.html CIA The World Factbook 2007] ] [ [http://www.macrentravel.com.ar/frame_argentina.htm Argentina Macren International Travel] ] mostly of Italian and Spanish stock. There are also significant German, British, French, Slavic, and Semitic origins. Argentina, like the United States, Canada, and Brazil, is a major destination for immigrants [Enrique Oteiza y Susana Novick sostienen que «"la Argentina desde el siglo XIX, al igual que Australia, Canadá o Estados Unidos, se convierte en un "país de inmigración", entendiendo por esto una sociedad que ha sido conformada por un fenómeno inmigratorio masivo, a partir de una población local muy pequeña.»" [http://www.iigg.fsoc.uba.ar/pobmigra/archivos/rc31.pdf (Oteiza, Enrique; Novick, Susana. Inmigración y derechos humanos. Política y discursos en el tramo final del menemismo. [en línea] . Buenos Aires: Instituto de Investigaciones Gino Germani, Facultad de Ciencias Sociales, Universidad de Buenos Aires, 2000 [Citado FECHA] . (IIGG Documentos de Trabajo, Nº 14). Disponible en la World Wide Web:http://www.iigg.fsoc.uba.ar/docs/dt/dt14.pdf)] ; El antropólogo brasileño Darcy Ribeiro incluye a la Argentina dentro de los "«pueblos trasplantados»" de América, junto con Uruguay, Canadá y Estados Unidos (Ribeiro, Darcy. "Las Américas y la Civilización" (1985). Buenos Aires:EUDEBA, pp. 449 ss.); El historiador argentino José Luis Romero define a la Argentina como un "«país aluvial» (Romero, José Luis. «Indicación sobre la situación de las masas en Argentina (1951)», en "La experiencia argentina y otros ensayos", Buenos Aires: Universidad de Belgrano,1980, p. 64).] and a melting pot of different ethnicities and nationalities. As a result, Argentines (just like Americans) don't take the nationality as an ethnicity, but identify themselves with both their nationality and their ancestral origins. The population includes Argentine Amerindians such as the Mapuche. [es icon http://www.indec.mecon.ar/nuevaweb/cuadros/2/ECPI_res_generales_junio2006.pdf]
