Paraguay
Nation, southern central South America. Area: 157,043 sq mi (406,741 sq km). Population (1997 est.): 5,089,000. Capital: Asunción. Most of the people are mestizo (mixed Spanish and Guaraní Indian); there are much smaller groups of Indians, blacks, Caucasians, and Asians. Languages: Spanish and Guaraní (both official). Religion: Roman Catholicism (88% of the population). Currency: Guaraní. Paraguay is a landlocked country of plains and swampland. The Paraguay River, flowing from north to south, divides the country into two geographic regions: the Eastern Region, which is an extension of the Brazilian Plateau; and the Western Region, which forms the northern part of the Gran Chaco plains. It has a developing market economy that is based largely on agriculture, trade, and light industries. It is a republic with two legislative houses; its chief of state and government is the president. Seminomadic tribes speaking Guaraní were in the area long before it was settled by Spain in the 16th-17th century. Paraguay was part of the viceroyalty of Rio de la Plata until it became independent in 1811. It suffered from dictatorial governments in the 19th century and from the 1865 war with Brazil, Argentina, and Uruguay. The Chaco War with Bolivia over disputed territory was settled primarily in Paraguay's favor by the peace treaty of 1938. Military governments, including that of Alfredo Stroessner, predominated in the mid-20th century until the election of a civilian president, Juan Carlos Wasmosy, in 1993. It suffered from a financial crisis in the late 1990s, and democratic government was in jeopardy.
