Climate of Falkland Islands
The Falkland Islands have a Maritime Subarctic climate that is very much influenced by the cool South Atlantic ocean and its northerly Patagonian current giving it a narrow annual temperature range.
Port Stanley is the capital of the Falkland Islands
Stanley (also known as Port Stanley) is the capital of the Falkland Islands. It is located on the island of East Falkland, on a north-facing slope in one of the wettest parts of the islands. At the 2012 census, the town had a population of 2,121. The entire population of the Falkland Island was 2,841 on Census Day on 15 April 2012.
National cuisine of the Falkland Islands
The Falkland Islands are basically represented by two wider territories: East Falkland Island and West Falkland Island and several hundred small islands. During time, Spanish people occupied the territory, so local influences of these strongly personalized cuisines can be found, especially in the only city, Stanley.
