Historical backgroundEdit

In 1936, they were still recovering from the War of the Triple Alliance which had led to the deaths of many of Paraguay's soldiers and civilians. The war had caused an economic depression, which was only worsened by the Chaco War with   Bolivia (another poor country) which had ended only half a year earlier. Although Paraguay managed to win this war, the Chaco Boreal region still remained heavily disputed. Despite having a large pro-Nazi/German community and a Axis sympathizing dictator during World War 2, Paraguay would end up joining the Allies against Germany in the closing days of the War in Europe because of aid provided by the   United States.

  • Naval Effort gives navy experience, builds naval dockyards, and research bonuses to navy research.
  • Industrial Effort builds civilian and military factories (usually even if building slots are already full)and grants extra research slots.
  • Political Effort gives the country choices on which political path they will take.
