Formosa

Formosa is a province in northeastern Argentina, located in the Gran Chaco region. 
The capital is the city of Formosa, situated on the Paraguay River (opposite Paraguay). 
The province borders Paraguay (north and east), Salta (west), and the Chaco (south). 

The landscape consists of forests, savannas, swamps, and jungles, with a high level of biodiversity (including Río Pilcomayo National Park). 
The economy revolves primarily around livestock, cotton, and fruit growing. 
The name "Formosa" comes from the old Spanish word for "beautiful," referring to a bend in the river.
