It might disturb you that UK helped Brazil, Argentina and Uruguay to defeat Paraguay...

>>69170500
Because Argentina, Brazil and the Brazilian proxy that was Uruguay had completely blocked Paraguay in an effort to isolate them from the world and bleed them dry. Solano Lopez could either do nothing and lose or he could risk a war.

No.
Brazil was the first country to recognize Paraguayan independence from Argentina and helped it with military aid. However, having to use Rio de la Plata as communication between Mato Grosso and Rio de Janeiro (there were no roads linking then by the time), Paraguay government saw an opportunity and created problems regarding our ships.

Also, Brazil was attacked first.

i love you japan

>>69172162
>having to use Rio de la Plata as communication between Mato Grosso and Rio de Janeiro
You mean Brazilian ships went all the way down to Uruguay to sail on the Paraguay river passing Asunción? Damn.

But anyway, as I understand it, both Brazil and Argentina wanted to be the sole regional power in South America, however there was a thorn in both their sides, Paraguay. So they decided to team up on Paraguay and get rid of their common rival. As I understand it, relations between the three of these were sour as can be. And then Brazil topples Paraguay's only ally in Uruguay, in order to control the Rio de la Plata. I'm not suprised Paraguay didn't roll out a red carpet for Brazilian ships.

>Also, Brazil was attacked first.
It was a preemptive attack.
