If an 1806 or 1807 British victory in Buenos Aires were to result in accelerated independence - from Spain - of the Viceroyalty of La Plata, would Argentina's development have unfolded much like OTL (e.g. federalist-unitarist civil wars, Rosas regime, 1865-1930 economic boom, Peronism, Dirty War, Falklands War, hyperinflation, 2001-02 economic collapse)? If so, would at least its earlier development have been much like in another thread?

Would it have been much the same story (especially later on) if La Plata became a British protectorate (assuming it eventually gains independence)?
