The Falklands Way of Life Ep. 2: Before the War

FITV

The way of life in the Falklands, a remote British Overseas Territory in the South Atlantic, has changed massively over the past two hundred years. From an isolated archipelago full of sheep farmers on the brink of destitution, the islands are now a prosperous and diverse quasi-nation, with many, if not most, of the comforts of modern life. This episode of the Falklands Way of Life looks at life leading up to the 1982 Falklands War, from the perspectives of islanders who lived through that period. Thank you to Falklands Radio for providing the audio of radio broadcasts from 1982.
