 CNNSI.com - 2002 World Cup Countdown - Uruguay's 'garra charrua' spirit boils over - Friday November 23, ...
"Charrua" was the name for the war-like tribe of Indians who inhabited the region around Montevideo before the Europeans arrived.
The country's passion for the game, best witnessed at a sellout game in the Centenario stadium in front of a crowd which never stops singing and cheering their team, is matched in few other places, even in Latin America.
But the famed "garra charrua", as Uruguay's never-say-die style is often known, also has an unfortunate tendency to boil over, leaving Uruguayan soccer with an unhappy reputation for violence, gamesmanship and petulance.

 History of Uruguay
The only inhabitants of Uruguay before European colonization of the area were the Charrua Indians, a small tribe driven south by the Guarani Indians of Paraguay.
The Spanish discovered the territory of present-day Uruguay in 1516, but the Indians' fierce resistance to conquest, combined with the absence of gold and silver, limited settlement in the region during the 16th and 17th centuries.
President Sanguinetti has used his second term to consolidate Uruguay's economic reforms and integration into MERCOSUR, increasing economic growth and reducing inflation.

It is probably referable to M. arciformis (Dall, 1909) named from Huaquilla, Ecuador.
This taxon was considered synonymous with the Charrua Mussel (Soot-Ryen, 1955), but Olsson (1961) treated the two as separate species.
It is not unlikely that the two are ecophenotypic morphs of the same species both here and in the Panamic Province, where both appear to be native (Keen, 1971).
