    Paraguay had much more soldiers than all the three countries together, and a interesting fact: Brazil took the leads on this war, and at the end it was mainly the brazilian army who were still fighting Paraguay, but however, this war affected Brazil very much; The debts with England and the rebellion of the army against the empire were fruits of this war and made the empire fall.

      And this was about pretty much the same state of affairs in Argentina at the time. The state ad not yet a full grip on internal stability. As this war was strongly opposed by the populace, it would give rise to some of the last provincial warlords, who opposed Buenos Aires' federal government.

    Paraguay, wanting to reach Uruguayan territory, decided to ask Argentina for passage to reach Uruguay, but since Argentina refused to give him the passage, Paraguay decided to pass by force, which Argentina did not like and that led to the war of the triple alliance, do not try to pass Paraguay off as good just because 3 countries were defending themselves against Paraguay, also in the war, the Paraguayan generals sent children and the elderly to war, literally to die and it should be clarified that after the war, Brazil and Argentina helped Paraguay financially so that it does not end up extinct

    En realidad la batalla decisiva fue la de riachuelo . La armada imperial brasileña estaba prácticamente dormida cuándo la armada paraguaya estaba a metros de ella. Sólo tenían que abordar los buques de guerra brasileños y listo. Pero el vice almirante Robles se le ocurrió primero bombardear loa acorazados brasileros dónde las balas prácticamente rebotaban sin causar daño para luego dar vuelta y ahí recién intentar el abordaje . En ese interin los marinos brasileños que estaban en las playas tuvieron tiempo de reaccionar y subir a sus acorazados. La batalla duro horas hasta que el almirante brasileño decidió chocar sus buques contra los buques paraguayos que eran de madera o más débiles que los acorazados brasileños y ahí pudieron ganar la batalla. Fue prácticamente una batalla estilo abordaje de piratas con táctica navales de la época de las guerra médicas.

    As a Uruguayan, I understand that the Uruguayans did what they could with their low numbers And I don't know if it was in this war but one of the defenses against Brazil was in Paysandú, that battle was destined to be lost but the Uruguayans resisted how they could. they were surrounded and They had no contact with the other provinces. I don't remember if it happened during that war. I forgot over time, much respect to the Paraguayans who tried to reach our country. a shame That the war ended that way. but, that thing of the past so, peace 🤝
    Fun fact:There are still cannon balls in Paysandú that are buried, my history teacher has one in his house

      Brazil invaded Uruguay to support one side in the country's civil war, while Paraguay supported the other. After that, Paraguay invaded Brazil, then invaded Argentina because they didn't give him permission to pass with the army, so the three teamed up against him.

    I am from Brazil but I'm extremely cetic and critic, I do not like all the actions of my country, because I know it's government did shit in the past, especially to black people. Unfortunately it turns out that paraguayans are simply doctrinated at school to believe that their dictator at this time "Solano López" was a hero, and that he was forced to invade Brazil because the British empire (??) ordered Brazil to invade Paraguay because "Paraguay had a great industry" (now I really don't know how the fuck they believe that they had industries at 1864, since at this time all south America was rural and the only machines we had such as trains were made in Europe, Latin America just started to industrialize in 1929). Solano López invaded Brazil without even declaring war, at first he "just" mobilized 2/7 of his population, and we from the triple alliance didn't had soldiers on the borders, so Paraguay got a lot of land and killed a lot of civilians, setting fire in our villages. Brazil mobilized its population and a lot of enslaved blacks were sent and if they come back alive they would be free brazilians. The triple allies captured Paraguay's capital at the south, but Solano refused to surrender, he started fleeing to the swamps at the north and the allied armies were following his track, but meanwhile he was fleeing he was creating divisions made of children from 6 to 14 years old, elder people and women, being those divisions lead by few adult males who would make them fight, and then he sent several of those divisions in the way between him and the allies, the allies killed those armed children who were forced to fight, and the worst of all is that the paraguayans learn in school that "children were proud of their country and started fighting by their own, they made fake beard to pretend to be adults" (?????). Even Germans, whose country has made brutalities in the past are able to say sorry and recognise, but paraguayans don't, they simply won't admite their "holy leader" was a psychopath, in their minds he was a hero. Imagine if Germany was proud of Hitler. I know a lot of paraguayans, they are amazing, but I feel really sorry for them, they were betrayed by a monster, and they still believe him.
