Wikipedia Country Information
Paraguay, oficialmente República del Paraguay[1] (en guaraní: Tetã Paraguái), es un país situado en la zona central de América del Sur. Su territorio se divide políticamente en un distrito capital y 17 departamentos, que a su vez se subdividen en 259 municipios. Su capital y ciudad más poblada es Asunción. Políticamente, se constituye en un Estado soberano de derecho, democrático, aconfesional y unitario, cuya forma de gobierno es la república presidencialista. Es miembro fundador del Mercosur junto con Argentina, Brasil y Uruguay.
Limita con Argentina al sureste, sur, suroeste y oeste; con Bolivia al norte y noroeste; y con Brasil al este y noreste. Con una superficie de 406 752 km², es el quinto país más pequeño de América del Sur. Su territorio está caracterizado por dos regiones diferentes separadas por el río Paraguay, la Oriental, que es la más poblada, y la Occidental, que forma parte del Chaco Boreal. Si bien es un estado sin litoral marítimo,[10] dispone de costas,[11] playas[12] y puertos sobre los ríos Paraná y Paraguay, que le dan salida al océano Atlántico a través de la Hidrovía Paraná-Paraguay.[13]
La Constitución paraguaya lo declara como un país pluricultural y bilingüe, estableciéndose como idiomas oficiales el castellano y guaraní.[14] Esta última es hablada en el país por el 87% de sus habitantes y su uso oral y escrito está regulado por la Academia de la Lengua Guaraní.[15][16] Paraguay posee una tasa de alfabetismo de las personas mayores de 15 años superior al 94%, y una esperanza de vida de 78,1 años según la CIA World Factbook.[17] Se ubica en el puesto 98 a nivel global en el índice de desarrollo humano, con 0,728 puntos en 2019, aun por debajo de la media mundial. Por su parte, la estructura de la economía paraguaya se compone del 11,4% en el sector agroganadero, 33,5% en el sector industrial, 47,5% en el sector servicios y 7,6% en las tasas.[18]
La presencia humana se remonta hacia el Neolítico, que data de unos 3200 años antes de Cristo.[19] Durante el período precolombino estuvo habitado por pueblos indígenas de los grupos tupí-guaraní y mataco-guaicurú. La llegada de los españoles marcó el inicio del dominio hispánico de este territorio hasta el siglo XIX, cuando en 1811 Paraguay consiguió su independencia. La historia de la incipiente nación estuvo marcada en una economía que se acrecentó en sus inicios, hasta el advenimiento de dos grandes guerras internacionales que asolaron el país. Las sucesivas pugnas políticas por el poder, junto con dos guerras civiles, culminaron en una férrea dictadura que fue finalmente derrocada y desde allí, se estableció el periodo democrático que sigue vigente hasta la actualidad.
