Or better said, one that can be found in books, enciclopedias and international treaties. It would take me in excess of 5000 words to just begin to answer this. And you know, if I was willing to do that, I&rsquo;d be negotiating a book contract rather than creating the longest Tumblr post ever.<\/p>\n<p>If you are interested, you can start reading where everyone starts: <a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Falkland_Islands\">Wikipedia<\/a>. And then make sure to follow the hundreds of footnotes and read those as well. If you&rsquo;d like a more complete version of events, I&rsquo;d also suggest you start learning Spanish so that you can trace the treaties from the 16th century about the Islands&rsquo; initial colonization and contemporary reports in Spanish language media. French might also help as they also laid claims to them around the 17th century.<\/p>\n<p>Barring all that, if you are still interested, my rate for research and analysis is affordable, or given the scope of the subject, we can negotiate a one time fee for something like 200 hours (which is the bare minimun to begin to understand the history of colonial interventions in South America). The ensuing report is guaranteed to keep you entertained for weeks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Simplistic answer? No, not at all.
