Hello to you all here!
I want to show you a little of my small but beautiful country, Paraguay!
I will begin with a little of the nation's history, and then some photos
Paraguay (/ˈpærəɡwaɪ/), officially the Republic of Paraguay (Spanish: República del Paraguay [reˈpuβlika ðel paɾaˈɣwaj], Guaraní: Tetã Paraguái [teˈtã paɾaˈɣwaj]), is a landlocked country in central South America, bordered by Argentina to the south and southwest, Brazil to the east and northeast, and Bolivia to the northwest. Paraguay lies on both banks of the Paraguay River, which runs through the center of the country from north to south. Due to its central location in South America, it is sometimes referred to as Corazón de América ("Heart of America").
It's a bilingual country, with Spanish and Guaraní. The population is close to 7 million. PPI is 53.123 million US$, and PPI per capita 6,758 US$.
The three biggest and most important urban areas are:
Metropolitan Asunción Area - 2,329,061
Metropolitan Ciudad del Este Area - 558 696
Metropolitan Encarnación Area - 206 546
I will be starting with some photos of the capital city, Asunción
