Malvinas?

Falklands Islands

Originally uploaded by Dying Monolingual.

In class today I noticed a Chinese map of the world, and just happened to notice The Falkland Islands tucked away in the corner, except they were called Malvinas.

Now, if the natives of an Island throw off an invasion, with the help of the armed forces of the Motherland, it’s pretty much settled that they ain’t Argentinians.

Oddly, the uninhabited island of South Georgia, also invaded by Agentina in 1982, doesn’t get the same treatment on a Chinese map.

but I’m supposed to pretend that this isn’t a country?
