Yes, they deserved it because Solano Lopez was a fucking cunt that thought he could beat the Empire of Brazil and Argentina. If i was Pedro II i wouldn't be too easy on those faggots, i'd split it between the Empire and Argentina.

>muh britain puppet
>Brazil had severed diplomatic relations with England at the time

Fuck off, anglo.

Deserved. This is what happens when you tried to invade Brazil

Why spanish bros were in union with Brazil?

>>71805340
Because Paraguay also tried to invade Argentina. Uruguayans joined because they were our slut.

Fuck anglos desu

The casualty numbers are grossly inflated tho; they are based on a pre-war census that never actually happened.

>>71804822
Paraguay also tried to start shit with the us. So we sent the marines to Paraguay and they ended hashing out their differences over a steak dinner.

and the argie with uruguays alone wouln't be able to handle paraguay by themselves

(also the whole mess started because those uruguayans can't keep their savage soldiers from attacking the borders and murdering peaceful brazilian farmers)

>>71805451
wtf Paraguay stronk

>>71805451
So, uruguayans killed brazilians and that was the reason to attack Paraguay. Seems legit.

No, Uruguay was divided between two faction and one of them was gay friend with paraguay and they both plotted to become the greatest south america power together (paraguay was thirsty for that acess to the ocean).
Turns out things got wild in uruguay and they started a civil war, and some soldiers were killing brazilian farmers on the border. Emperor D.Pedro II decided to intervene in behalf of requests from Rio Grande do Sul and invaded Uruguay and settled things down in favor of the colorado party.

Turns out Paraguay was heavy on his faggot relation with uruguayan and invaded Brazil as a response to Brazil intervention in Uruguay. They attacked out of nowhere (up until them we had good relationship and trade), slaughtered and raped a peaceful city and threatened to annex most of our west provinces.

We didn't liked it. And so it begun

Shelling of Mainila
>Seven shots were fired, and their fall was detected by three Finnish observation posts. These witnesses estimated that the shells detonated approximately 800 meters inside Soviet territory.[4] Finland proposed a neutral investigation of the incident, but the Soviet Union refused and broke diplomatic relations with Finland on November 29.[5]
>Materials in the private archives of Soviet party leader Andrei Zhdanov heavily hint that the entire incident was orchestrated in order to paint Finland as an aggressor and launch an offensive.[6] The Finnish side denied responsibility for the attacks and identified Soviet artillery as their source – indeed, the war diaries of nearby Finnish artillery batteries show that Mainila was out of range of all of them, as they had been withdrawn previously to prevent such incidents.[7]
>The Finns conducted an immediate investigation, which concluded that no Finnish artillery or mortars could have reached the village of Mainila. Field Marshal C.G.E. Mannerheim had ordered all Finnish guns drawn back out of range.[4] Finnish border guards testified they had heard the sound of artillery fire from the Soviet side of the border.[2]
>Russian historian Pavel Aptekar analyzed declassified Soviet military documents and found that the daily reports from troops located in the area did not report any losses in personnel during the time period in question, leading him to conclude that the shelling of Soviet troops was staged.[8]
>Years after the incident,[when?] Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev wrote that the Mainila shellings were organized by Artillery Marshal Grigory Kulik.[9] In 1994, Russian President Boris Yeltsin denounced the Winter War, agreeing it had been a war of aggression.[10]

>>71805392
the total population number and the casualty number were taken from brazilian and unitedstatian sources, and always round to 600,000 and 250,000, hence the assumption that it was exactly 60% lost
there were more POWs than implied and they rebuilt Paraguay (with the occasional help of argentinian, brazilian, bolivian and european semen)

>>71805856
>They attacked out of nowhere
ahem, reinforced the (disputed) border
... yep, Lopez was stupid, should have attacked the south inmediately but he attacked the east first

I had only one history class about the Paraguayan war in my whole life and I live near Paraguay so it's far to say that Brazil treats this war in a very shitty way.

>>71804822
The Paraguayan dictator invaded Brazil by surprise and beheaded the governor of one of our states. We weren't "puppets", the fucking maniac wanted to anex half of my country.

>>71810962

It's funny how some people still believe that Paraguay was a rising superpooper at the time and that's why Britain interfered.

>>71812889
but thats not why the british interfered.

>>71812889
>>71812931
yeah their objective was always cash
how much each involved country's external debt raised after that?

>>71812982
and.. what did you have to buy and sell to the british after that? .

>>71812931
>>71812982

Historians says that Paraguay was "too independent" at the time and that's why brits interfered. Which is bullshit.

The war killed our empire as well.

>>71813552
>our empire

That could'nt handle a little country by itself.

You were cucked by the british and you dont even realize it.

>>71813493
buy: modern weapons
sell (after war):
- Paragoy: arable lands. it was the only thing left
- Brexil: arable lands, precious stones, cotton and wood, government bonds
- Argieland: arable lands, government bonds... dunno, cows. Falklands were never an issue until much later during the whalers commercial competition for Antarctica

I first read about this in some old reference texts that my family had, of course it never gets mentioned at all in greneral american history classes, except for maybe a sentence

feel some sympathy for that little country

Why can't we simply blame the eternal Anglo and forget the details? The USA had a civil war that disturbed cotton trade to Britain, so they instigated the war in South America to get rid of Paraguayan protectionism. The Kirchner family told me this is what happened so it must be true.

Protectionism actually hurts a lots of butts.

ask Trump.

It was also said that Britain stirred up the War of the Pacific and the Chaco War.

no, AFAIK the Standard Oil is an unitedstatian company
ah but Royal Dutch Shell is anglo-dutch. you're onto something

>>71814623
Then I bet it sucks to know how inferior you actually are
Paraguay

California

I wonder what South America would have been like if Paraguay had won the war within three months.

>>71815684

they have like a seventh the population of that state

>>71815871
10x worse than now

did Puragay ever have the slightest chance to win that war or did they get rused?

>>71815871
there was no possible way Paraguay would "win" a war against the empire of Brazil. and then stupid sexy Buenos Aires did the ultimate face-heel turn by not helping Uruguay and Paraguay. i guess Paraguay was more of a pain in the back than Brazil for the argies, so they went along with the plan
let's be absolute WE WUZ and think what could Lopez actually achieve:
- a stalemate with Brazil and taking property all the way to the Verde and Paranapanema river, maybe sea coast but i doubt it. there would probably be war again but later in time
- status as World Police force: division SouthAm
- eternal gratitude from Uruguay instead of the ungrateful fucks they are now. probably sharing border with them
- Lopez' son and grandson would be king--ahem, i mean presidentes after him
- ginormous external debt with Britain that barely justifies the territorial expansion (so another war again but later in time)
- about Argentina: if invading Argentina was necessary and succesful: anexation of Corrientes and Misiones, also forcing them to open market
but yeah just because we speak spanish doesn't mean we're brothers. tough luck Paraguay

>>71816328

Even that is debatable.
