Argentina has a quite remarkable tradition regarding mules, since they took part in every major event along the country history: from an intense commerce
during colonialism with several neighbouring countries, crossing the Andes with the Ejército Libertador to fight against realists and liberate southern America from the Spanish oppression, to every transcendental conflict in the political conformation of such a wide and diverse nation. |
