In Argentina, the dictatorship began after the fall of Isabel<s>ita</s> Perón with a military coup in 1976, swearing in Jorge Rafael Videla as president in a dictatorship known as "Proceso de Reorganización Nacional". The dictatorship became known for its brutality and authoritarianism (with some considering it as totalitarianism), as well as a refuge from post-war Nazis and anti-Semitism, so much so that Videla became known as "Hitler of the Pampa", but also had some economic improvements thanks to the minister of José Alfredo Martínez de Hoz's economy, even if he subsequently had increased debt and tax evasion. Videla stayed in power for 5 years, being succeeded by Roberto Eduardo Viola (8 months), Leopoldo Galtieri (5 months) and finally, Reynaldo Bignone (1 year and 5 months).
*[[File:Videla.png]] '''Jorge Rafael Videla -''' As already said, Videla was known for his high degree of brutality and authoritarianism, forbidding and burning books, media, committing kidnappings, torture, murders and others, but still tried to leave the image that Argentina fulfilled human rights and had freedom, as in the case of the 1978 world cup.<ref>[https://expresso.pt/dossies/diario/2018-08-09-Saiba-como-a-Ford-foi-cumplice-da-ditadura-argentina.-E-ha-quem-esteja-a-ser-julgado-40-anos-depois 14]</ref> There was an increase in public works of considerable utility, but there were also overpricings obscured by the government.
*[[File:Argentiniantorturer.png]] '''Albano Harguindeguy -''' Albano Harguindeguy was a military former Minister of the Interior of Argentina, known for his crimes against humanity. Under the dictatorship, he was responsible for torturing opponents, usually using torture methods used by France in the Algerian War of Independence, which he learned at the School of the Americas (school of torture in Panama). He subsequently benefited from Carlos Menem's pardon, but later he went through prosecutions and died in 2012 while serving criminal proceedings.
*[[File:RobertoEduardoViola.png]] '''Roberto Eduardo Viola -''' Roberto Eduardo Viola was a military man and former president of Argentina during the dictatorship. He took over after tensions in the military leadership, replacing Videla, as well as having a "soft line" stance towards Videla. During Viola's administration, the economy took a considerable turn, especially after appointing Lorenzo Sigaut as minister of economy, with a devaluation and making foreign investors avoid Argentina. Even though he had a "softer" stance compared to Videla, he still ordered 86 kidnappings, 11 tortures and 3 robberies. He was later removed from power by the military junta, trying to lead a coup against Leopoldo Galtieri during the Falklands wars in 1982, but ultimately failing. After the dictatorship, he was arrested in 1985 for crimes committed during the junta, being pardoned by Carlos Menem in 1990, dying in 1994 before the reopening of proceedings.
*[[File:Argentiniantorturer.png]] '''Guillermo Suárez Mason -''' Guillermo Suárez Mason was a former businessman and ex-military during the dictatorship. He was known for his extreme brutality and crimes against humanity, making him known as "el carnicero del Olimpo" (El Olimpo was a clandestine detention camp). He operated 4 detention camps, in addition to operating Intelligence Battalion 601, also ordering kidnappings and training the Contras in Nicaragua. He promoted the execution of Operação Soberania, starting an armed crisis, in addition to considering Jorge Rafael Videla and Roberto Eduardo Viola as "soft", preferring "hard" people from the junta, such as Emilio Eduardo Massera. After the Falklands War, he was appointed president of Yacimientos Petrolliferos Fiscales, which, while growing considerably, was accused of tampering with oil from Sol Petróleo S.A. to finance the Contras in Nicaragua as part of Operation Condor, later he operated a Masonic movement and have been a member of the Asociación Atlética Argentinos Juniors. After the dictatorship, he fled to the USA, which, before the process against him, ended up being one of the beneficiaries of Carlos Menem's pardons, who even so continued to be invested. In 2003, he sentenced to 3 and a half years in prison, dying in 2005 of cardiac arrest.
*[[File:Galtieri.png]] '''Leopoldo Fortunato Galtieri -''' Leopoldo Fortunato Galtieri was a military man and former president of Argentina during the military dictatorship. Before the presidency, he had disagreements with Roberto Eduardo Viola, negotiating his departure. As president, he was known for his irredentism seen in the disastrous Falklands War, in addition to being economically privatizing, freezing wages, understanding money in circulation and repressing unions, in addition to the economic crisis caused by incompetence in privatization. What made him famous was the Falklands War, in which he invaded the Falkland Islands in 1982, islands that belonged to the United Kingdom under Margaret Thatcher. In April, he managed to take the Falklands, but the United Kingdom managed to take it back and emerged as the victor of the war, guaranteeing Margaret Thatcher's re-election and anticipating the end of the dictatorship in Argentina, in addition to both breaking off relations until 1990. Other characteristics would be its anti-communism, even though it approached Gaddafi's Libya, Cuba, Angola and pro-USSR countries.
