I'm sure that Uruguay's folklore resembles that of Argentina. They both share the history and tales of the gaucho (cowboy, usually a mestizo) culture as well as the rich history of the Tango. Both countries are strongly European (notably Spanish and Italian) in their orientation, and, unlike many Latin American countries, Uruguay is minimally influenced by indigenous culture.

hahahahah Shanti...dabke !!!!!!
Latelly Uruguay is being invaded by foreigners that came by dozens. from Anguilla, Bern,and also L, in spite of it is winter (or almost) here.

Anyways.....kmatty said it well...We, uruguayan pple have also a dance with remembrance with that folklore that Pizza said. Is danced only by men, and is called MALAMBO.
We share that with Argentina too.
