Following Argentina's landing of troops on the islands, Britain undertook a military intervention by sending a naval force to the region. The fighting, which lasted several weeks, ended with Britain's recapture of the islands. The war left significant effects on the domestic politics of both countries; the dispute over the status of the islands, however, persisted.
