From North to South and West to East, these are: |
|||
*'''[[Argentine Northwest]]''': [[Jujuy Province|Jujuy]], [[Salta Province|Salta]], [[Tucumán Province|Tucumán]], [[Catamarca Province|Catamarca]] |
|||
*'''[[Gran Chaco]]''': [[Formosa Province|Formosa]], [[Chaco Province|Chaco]], [[Santiago del Estero Province|Santiago del Estero]] |
|||
*'''[[Mesopotamia, Argentina|Mesopotamia]]''' (or '''Littoral'''): [[Misiones Province|Misiones]], [[Entre Ríos Province|Entre Ríos]], [[Corrientes Province|Corrientes]] |
|||
*'''[[Cuyo, Argentina|Cuyo]]''': [[San Juan Province, Argentina|San Juan]], [[La Rioja Province, Argentina|La Rioja]], [[Mendoza Province|Mendoza]], [[San Luis Province|San Luis]] |
|||
*'''[[Pampa]]s''': [[Córdoba Province, Argentina|Córdoba]], [[Santa Fe Province|Santa Fe]], [[La Pampa Province|La Pampa]], [[Buenos Aires Province|Buenos Aires]] |
|||
*'''[[Patagonia]]''': [[Río Negro Province|Rio Negro]], [[Neuquén Province|Neuquén]], [[Chubut Province|Chubut]], [[Santa Cruz Province, Argentina|Santa Cruz]], [[Tierra del Fuego Province, Argentina|Tierra del Fuego]] |

Nevertheless, there are different approaches to the Argentine regions. The Pampas are often separated into [[Humid Pampa]] and [[Dry Pampas]], and sometimes in ''[[Llanura Pampeana]]'' and ''[[Sierras Pampeanas]]''. Other geographical analysis include other defined regions, being [[Comahue]] and [[Chaco Central]] among the most common. |
|||
Regardless of the regions system used, some provinces are shared by more than one region. For instance, Southwestern Santiago del Estero is sometimes considered part of the ''Sierras'' area, or even the ''Humid Pampa'', while the Southern part of La Pampa is sometimes called ''Dry Pampa'' and included in Patagonia. Finally, La Rioja is sometimes considered part of Cuyo region instead of the Northwest. |
|||
Finally, the portion of the [[Antarctica]] claimed by Argentina is known as [[Argentine Antarctica]], in which lay a number of Argentine bases. |
