Argentine football, Argentine tango.

But for the first time I learned about Argentina by watching the dance of the Argentine gauchos performed by dancers of Moiseev ballet.
Of course, the Argentine gauchos do not dance like that, it is a staged dance using the characteristic movements of the gauchos. Here is a short video of the GAUCHO fiesta at Rancho Santa Susana.
It's not a gaucho either, but there are a lot of real gauchos among the audience, with big knives (facon), so he dances properly. And we can see - Moiseev copied the main movements quite accurately.
