	Pampa - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Pampas (from Quechua, meaning "plain") are the fertile South American lowlands that include the Argentine provinces of Buenos Aires, La Pampa, Santa Fe, and Córdoba, most of Uruguay, and the southernmost end of Brazil, Rio Grande do Sul, covering more than 750,000 km² (290,000 square miles).
		The Pampas are home to a wide variety of native species, although there is an almost absolute lack of native trees, except along main watercourses.
		These farming regions (i.e., modified of disturbed Pampas) are particularly susceptible to flooding during heavy rainfall.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Uruguay
		The northern boundary, 450 miles in extent, was definitively settled by treaty with Brazil on 15 May, 1852, as the Río Quarim, the Cuchilla de Santa Ana to the Río San Luis, thence to the Río Jaguarão, and the western shore of Lago Mirim.
		The northern portion of the republic is hilly, the ranges being continuations of the Brazilian mountains; though the hills are termed cuchillas (knives), the summits are not sharp, but gently rounded.
		The vice- president of the republic is ex-officio chairman of the Senate.

		One of the chief discomforts of railroad-riding in the Argentines comes from the winds; it blows on the pampas at times with all the force of a Kansas blizzard.

		The disease from which the Argentine Republic suffers is its own expanse: the desert wilderness surrounds it on all sides and insinuates into its bowels; solitude, a barren land with no human habitation, in general are the unquestionable borders between one province and another.
		There, immensity is everywhere: immense plains, immense forests, immense rivers, the horizon always unclear, always confused with the earth amid swift-moving clouds and tenuous mists, which do not allow the point where the world ends and the sky begins to be marked in a far-off perspective.
		In the first, the little houses are painted, always clean in front, adorned with flowers and nice little shrubs; the furnishings, simple but complete; the dishes made of copper or tin, always shining; the bed with nice curtains; and the inhabitants in constant motion and action.
