Fun fact: in Córdoba, there's a German village called Villa General Belgrano. However, before it was called Villa Calamuchita. Why the name change? In 1943 there was an Oktoberfest and locals burned an Argentine flag, they pissed off both province and national governments so much they punished them by renaming the town in honour of the man who created the flag Manuel Belgrano
