If pronounced in some varieties of Argentine Spanish, Yrigoyen almost rhymes with Prigozhin.

 It looks like the guessers have collectively lost. I wonder if it was Hipólito Yrigoyen.
Yes :!:

¡Viva Hipólito Yrigoyen y el Partido Radical!

I totally :zultar: won :zultar: this round, but will use rule Ⅸ to pass the baton to Spartaculous, who was nice to me unlike some of the rest of you.
Thanks :zultar: JECE :zultar:! Some bumps in the road, but a fun pick.

 The list is too long, but glossing over the Spanish language history of Argentina wiki (https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Historia_de_la_Argentina)

The most appealing person of interest to me is: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Domingo_Faustino_Sarmiento

For clarity, this is not a guess)
English language articles on the history of Argentina should be sufficient. You are looking for somebody famous.

 I guess Justo José de Urquiza
No.

One guess left! I feel like I should give a hint before the final guess, but it may take me a little while to come up with a good one.

No

I think the key here is to go to this article and look for people born 1801-1869 who haven't been guessed yet.

Roca?
No. Three guesses left.

Keep looking for historically relevant individuals.

 José Batlle y Ordóñez?

This is the uruguayan president born within the right period with the most wikipedia coverage
I'm going to ignore this guess given the penultimate question, but interesting pick.
