Absolutely no strait at all - the major area of Tierra del Fuego is in Chile! (Although populationwise, the density is in Argentina.) Tierra del Fuego itself is delimited by the Magellan Strait to the north and west, and the Beagle Channel in the south. Of these, only the Beagle Channel is a boundary between Chile and the Argentine part of the Tierra del Fuego. > 10 Who designed the wedding dress Madonna wore when she married Guy > Ritchie?
