The Falkland Islands are a small group of islands situated in the South Atlantic Ocean, near the coast of Argentina.
==Sovereignty==
The Islands have been a territory of the United Kingdom for 170 years, but the British claim to sovereignty is disputed by Argentina. A war was fought over the issue in 1982. France and Spain have also previously laid claim to the islands.
==Economy==
The Falklands economy is based largely on fishing, although recently evidence of oil deposits around the islands has suggested the possibility of an economic revolution.
