The relationship between Argentina and the Holy See has been marked by episodes of tension, especially regarding control over education and civil registry.
## The divorce and education
The relationship between Argentina and the Holy See had its ups and downs. There was a moment, in **1966**, when the country **broke diplomatic relations** with the Vatican. The main reason was the dispute over control of **civil registry** and **education**, areas that the Catholic Church had historically held. They sought to secularize these spheres, removing the ecclesiastical monopoly.
## Reconciliation and its nuances
However, this distance was not permanent. It was in **1957**, during the so-called **Infamous Decade**, that relations were restored. This rapprochement occurred under the premise of re-establishing links with the Holy See, although underlying tensions regarding the Church's influence on state matters persisted.
