History

20th Century

In 1941, control of the nation of Atlantis was briefly usurped by Namor's uncle Daka. Daka entered in an alliance with the Seal People and the Nazis and staged an invasion of North and South America. Their first target was Argentina. However, the Sub-Mariner led an army of Atlantean resistance fighters in thwarting this invasion. Daka and his conspirators were then turned over to the Argentinian authorities^[1].

Argentina was also the home of insane botany expert Kamentin who conducted his experiments in a remote village located in the Andes Mountains. By 1942 he had created massive man-eating plants, which he used to terrorize the region until he was slain by the Vision^[2]. In 1946, the formula for a Sun Ray developed by a former Nazi scientist was smuggled to Buenos Aires where former Nazis and organized criminals alike. On top of back stabbing each other to obtain control of the formula, these opposing forces were ultimately thwarted by Miss America^{[3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12]}. Argentina was threatened later that year when Future Man and Madame Death unleashed a slow motion ray from Argentina, causing accidents across South America. Their device was destroyed by the Whizzer^[13].
