Can you recall the country that invaded the Falkland Islands in 1982?

The Falkland Islands, located in the South Atlantic, have been a point of contention between the UK and Argentina for quite some time. Argentina claims the islands, referring to them as the Islas Malvinas, asserting a historical claim dating back to Spanish colonization. In 1982, this long-standing dispute escalated dramatically when Argentina invaded the islands. This act of aggression triggered a swift response from the British government, leading to the Falklands War. After a relatively short but intense conflict, British forces successfully reclaimed the islands. So, the correct answer is Argentina because they were the country that initiated the invasion of the Falkland Islands in 1982, leading to the Falklands War. While Portugal and Spain have historical connections to South America, and Colombia is a South American nation, none of them were involved in the 1982 invasion of the Falkland Islands.
