River Plate Colony Wikipedia article (out of date but still great work)
This is a WIP, I'd like feedback, especially from @Entrerriano. The "classified" is placeholder for events or information not established. My idea is for the River Plate to gain responsible government in the early 1850s (maybe after a minor rebellion?), settle the Pampas in the late 1850s (mainly by state-sponsored Anglophone settleres), reach a political dreadlock between Anglo-platineans and Spanish-Platineans in the late 1860s/early1870s paving way for a federalization between the provinces giving rise to a Dominion/Confederation inside the Empire maybe in the 1880s. What do you think?

Also, would this nation end up called Argentina ("silvery") like IOTL or would it remain Plate or River Plate, like Canada which mantained the French name (albeit with different pronunciation).
