Why did so many N*zis escape to Argentina?

When World War II ended in 1945, leading Nazi officials and prominent members of the party were either found dead, were arrested, or in many cases, had simply vanished.
Those who were arrested faced justice for their war crimes and crimes against humanity at the Nuremberg trials. There were those who escaped however, who were never found, and never experienced retribution for their horrific actions during the war.
It seems almost unreal that such prominent, well-known individuals could just disappear. But, unfortunately, not everyone was horrified by the Nazi’s actions and despite the war ending, these men still had friends in high places willing to help them take on new identities.
Usually, these Nazis ended up scattered across the world with a large number heading to North and South American countries including Brazil and Paraguay. But the most popular, and most researched, escapee destination was Argentina.
