Patagonia is the southern foot of South America shared by Argentina and Chile, including Tierra del Fuego archipelago. The name Patagonia is derived from coastal giants, Patagão or Patagoni, who were reported by Magellan's 1520s voyage circumnavigating the world and were actually Tehuelche native people who averaged 25 cm (or 10 inches) taller than the Spaniards.
