When a Uruguayan welcomes you with a call for a \mate", don't be alarmed, "el mate" is the ubiquitous traditional drink, derived from the herb yerba. Mate is found everywhere in Montevideo, the waterfront capital of Uruguay, established in 1726. A hub of commerce and higher education, Montevideo's architecture is reflective of its Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, French and British immigrants and it enjoys a humid, subtropical climate.
