History

Initially, both modern states of Bolivia and Paraguay were part of the Viceroyalty of the Río de la Plata. In 1932, both countries broke their diplomatic relations and entered into a disastrous war called the Chaco War, which would last 3 years, until 1935. This war caused serious economic, social, and political consequences for both countries, thus delaying way its development. In 1938, a Peace Treaty was definitively signed between the two nations and the subsequent delimitation of borders.
