El padre Juan de San Martín y Gómez fue un militar español y gobernante colonial que hizo carrera en la región del Río de la Plata. Fue nombrado gobernador de Yapeyú el 13 de diciembre de 1774. En Yapeyu , Corrientes, nació José de San Martín en 1778 siendo su padre gobernador y luego la familia regresó a España donde José de San Martín ingresó a la Academia militar, llegó a Coronel del Ejército imperial español después de varias condecoraciones y ascensos por su desempeño en las guerras contra Francia, Inglaterra, los moros, etc y después de que el Rey español es detenido por Napoleón regresa a la Argentina para independizarla junto a la independencia de Chile y Perú. Por todo esto, porque el General San Martín nació como español en el Virreinato del Río de la Plata y el General Belgrano como español en el Virreinato del Perú, ambos en la actual Argentina, porque ambos eran descendientes de inmigrantes europeos como todos los héroes de la independencia, Argentina es sin ninguna duda hija de Europa.

Sin mencionar los otros tantos siglos que pasamos bajo dominio romano. La batalla de Lepanto la encabezaron el imperio español, las repúblicas y ducados italianos y otras órdenes militares contra el imperio otomano y es considerada una de las más grandes batallas navales de la historia.

The Italians who arrived in Argentina came from all parts of Italy and basically spoke their own dialects, very different from each other. At that time the Italian language was spoken by less than 10% of the population in Italy. I think this is one of the reasons why the Spanish that was already spoken there was taken as the vehicular language and there are Italian variants in the spoken words.

Very interesting.

[@TRAVELLINGCHANNEL1]

No, it makes no sense. For example in Brazil, the Germans also arrived from different places and could not understand each other, and few different languages developed. Italians in Brazil instead lost their language with only one generation and the reason is very simple, Portuguese is so similar to Italian and easy to learn. For the Germans it was not. So the German is the second most spoken language in Brazil despite Brazil receiving much more Italian immigrants. And for Argentina I think is the same reason.

[@guillermodinanno8432]

Different dialects?? No mate, Italian is Italian.. maybe different accents??.. Even so.. probably Italians picked up Spanish very quickly because both languages are very similar.. My grandfathers dad was Italian and spoke little spanish.. Now my grandpa is Argentian, he spoke a bit of Italian and full Spanish..

[@Wahrheit_]

In reality the dialects in Italy are mostly different languages, not dialects, there is also the issue that most of them are not recognized as their own language, That's another interesting topic, standard Italian doesn't descend from anything because it was just an artificial creation for all of Italy to feel identified with, many Italian families that don't speak standard they just don't teach their kids their """dialect""

From 1860 to 1880, Argentina was the main destination of people leaving Italy and the overwhelming majority were from northern Italy, NOT southern Italy. Generally speaking, more northern Italians went to the Latin American; whereas more southern Italians went to USA. To learn more, I recommend books such as Donna Gabaccia's "Italy's Many Diasporas" or Samuel Bailey's study of Italian immigrants in New York and Buenos Aires.

[@dapaniepe]

Creo que hay algún error en lo que decís. En 1861 se produce la unificacion de Italia con la derrota del Reino de las Dos Sicilias, que abarcaba todo el sur de Italia desde Nápoles hacia abajo, más Sicilia. Este hecho, sumió a el sur italiano en la miseria más profunda, además de muy cruentas represiones de sus habitantes por parte de los ejercitos del norte que respondían al nuevo rey de Italia. De esta manera desde ese año la inmigración de los italianos del Sur fue en sostenido ascenso. La mayoría de los los italianos que vinieron a la Argentina eran calabreses, sicilianos, puglieses, napolitanos y marchegianos. De hecho a los italianos en Argentina se les dice Tanos, como aféresis de Napolitano. No digo que no haya migración desde otras regiones de italia, pero claramente en Argentina la mayoría son italianos del sur.

Que en USA fueron casi todos del sur en particular de Sicilia es cierto, pero en Argentina dudo que la cantidad que vino del norte sea mayor que la del sur, acá la mayoría vino de Nápoles ( sur) y después Génova ( norte). Si hablas con Italoargentinos que conozcan su historia familiar vas a ver qué en general tienen tanto del sur como del norte. En mi caso son de Génova , Lombardía y Calabria. Otra cosa a corregir es que si bien en Argentina hubo más migración italiana que española post 1860 sigue pesando más la matriz mestiza de español -indigena. Sí, el 65% tenemos algún ancestro italiano pero el 80 por ciento tenemos algún ancestro indígena y casi todos algún ancestro español. Después en la clase media es normal que veas que los argentinos lucen blancos mediterráneos porque prima la mixtura inmigrante español-italiano y está diluida la sangre indígena ( pero está y lo ves en analisis de ADN mitocondrial ). En la clase más pobre prima claramente la ascendencia indígena, y en los últimos 50 años la matriz genética indígena creció cada vez más. No somos ni por asomo italianos

[@BotanicalJourney]

@@dapaniepe Thank you for your response and I apologize for responding in English. No, what I have said is correct and you can see the data in the sources I cited in my response. It is not my opinion. I am speaking about the immigration period from 1860-1900. The majority of immigrants who went to Argentina during that period were from the North-Center. Whereas, in the USA, immigration from Italy accelerated in 1890, and it was more than 80% from the South---and that never changed. Immigrants from the south defined migration to the USA. If you were from Northern Italy and you migrated to the Americas, you were more likely to Latin America. Of course, the sending provinces shifted over time. The earliest immigrants to Argentina were mostly from Piemonte and Lombardia. Once you get into the 1900s, people from Sicilia and Calabria are become more numerous. So, in the end, yes, the Italo-Argentinian population is roughly half north/center and half south. The USA by contrast is more than 85% south descended. Again, we don't need to rely on opinion. The data is there.

La canción "Aurora" es la cancion oficial a la bandera Argentina y su letra original es en italiano y asi se cantó durante años. La ópera Aurora es considerada la primera ópera nacional argentina; fue un encargo del gobierno argentino para la inauguración de la primera temporada del Teatro Colón. Originalmente en italiano, compuesta por Héctor Panizza y libreto de Luigi Illica (autor de los textos de Madame Butterfly entre otros éxitos de la época). Para acompañar al italiano y suministrarle la información histórica y el contexto nacional que debía dar sentido y referencia al argumento se sumó como argumentista el argentino Héctor Cipriano Quesada. Fue estrenada el 5 de septiembre de 1908, en el Teatro Colón de Buenos Aires bajo la batuta de su autor con el célebre tenor Amedeo Bassi.[1] Recién en 1943 se tradujo al español y es la canción a la bandera que se canta en todos los colegios argentinos cada mañana. Texto Traducido Alta en el cielo un aguila guerrera, audaz se eleva a vuelo triunfal; azul un ala del color del cielo, azul un ala del color del mar. Así en la alta aurora irradia, punta de flecha el áureo rostro imita, y forma estela al purpurado cuello. El ala es paño, el águila es bandera. Es la bandera de la patria mía, del sol nacida, que me ha dado Dios; es la bandera de la patria mía, del sol nacida, que me ha dado Dios; es la bandera de la patria mía, del sol nacida que me ha dado Dios. Texto original en italiano Alta pel cielo, un’aquila guerriera, ardita s’erge in volo trionfale. Ha un’ala azzurra, del color del mare, ha un’ala azzurra, del color del cielo. Così nell’alta aurora irradiale, il rostro d’or punta di freccia appare, porpora il teso collo e forma stelo, l’ali son drappo e l’aquila è bandiera.

I’ve heard an Argentinian saying from my friend who goes: “We’re just Italians who speak Spanish.” There are also quite a lot of Germans, ironically, in the same places plus Chile.

[@danieleyre8913]

The number of Italians that migrated to the USA was much fewer than that which migrated to Argentina, Uruguay and Brazil’s Rio grande do sol. That whole “Italian American” thing is so overblown…

There are millions, if not 10's of millions of people in those areas that have Italian ancestry.

[@danieleyre8913]

@@markantony3875 That may be true. But my salient point is: 1) Fewer Italians emigrated to the USA than to the Southern cone of South America. 2) Italian immigrants in the USA did not make a major impact on the nation’s mainstream culture & values & architecture like they did in Uruguay and Argentina & Southern Brazil. 3) These tens of millions of Americans with Italian ancestry today whom you speak of are not actually very Italian anymore. They’re Americans first and foremost. They were overwhelmingly only from the Southern regions of Italy anyway (mostly Campania or Sicily. And Sicilians are a breed apart from Italians anyway). I stand by what I said,

[@markantony3875]

@@danieleyre8913 Uruguay and Argentina have a much smaller population than the U.S., so of course Italian immigration had a huge effect on the culture of the entire country. The Italian immigration had a regional effect in Brazil, similar to the U.S.. Italian immigration had a cultural effect in southern Brazil, but not Brazil as a whole. The same applies to the U.S. Italian immigration and culture had a large effect in the urban areas in the Northeastern U.S., but not in other areas. You obviously have little knowledge of the urban areas in the Northeastern US, or you would realize how strong Italian ancestry and family culture is there. As far as Italians in the U.S. integrating into U.S. society, that is true. But, that is true of every single immigrant group after a few generations. Recent Hispanic immigrants will just become everyday "Americans" after a few generations. There is already a loss of Spanish use and Hispanic identity even after one generation in the U.S. The same holds true in South America. The people of Italian ancestry in Brazil, Argentina and Uruguay see themselves as citizens of their current countries first and Italian ancestry as second. I was born in Italy, now live in the U.S. and have family that lives in Brazil and Argentina. I know how this works from first hand experience. I don't think you do.

Brasil tiene un gran componente de los ex esclavos africanos recién "liberados" en 1882!!! (el último país en abolir la esclavitud...) Los afro brasileños son del 30 a 40% de Brasil... Argentina tiene mestizos en diferente grado pero muy asimilados o mixturados con el resto del país, a lo sumo un 15%... Los afro argentinos, que fueron liberados en 1816, eran muy pocos pues no había Economía de Plantaciones, y se diluyeron casi, asimilándose, tras el masivo arribo de millones de inmigrantes de Europa y Oriente Medio a partir del siglo XIX (en 1910, los nacidos en Argentina eran sólo el 25%, dada la fuerte ola migratoria!)...
