I think I've said this before, but:

The Falklands would probably be important as a jumping-off station for the British and important to the Argentinians as a matter of national pride early in the Twilight War, but perhaps as early as late 1997, nobody would be bothering with the Falklands anymore. As for those who lived there -- as time went by, visits from the outside became fewer and fewer, and the livestock supplies became smaller and smaller, those people would become smaller and smaller in number. By 2000, they would be hanging on to a more and more bitter edge of survival; after a century or so, the reconstituting world might find what's left, including a less-and-less coherent account of the last days...
