Good use of statistics here to show the comparisons/contrasts between the U.S and Argentina, I would have liked someone more information in the terrain portion though. Also I like this blog layout style.

Good looking page and very well organized. I thought it was interesting that Argentina’s terrain was made up of so many different types of land.
