Weren't they prosperous for a while after World War I?
They were prosperous when they had surges of incoming white immigrants from Europe, yes.
It was more about them selling food to war-thorn countries. Even Paraguay had a budget surplus after WWI for similar reasons, and they didn't get many white immigrants.
