    Note:
    Paraguay had no OFFICIAL subdivisions before 1906.
    There were multiple proposed borders in the Chaco region that were never made official. There was also an 1852 treaty that would have ceded Misiones to Argentina that was rejected by Argentina’s legislature the same year, which is why it does not appear.
    Many disputed lands were sparsely populated by either claimant.

      It's a very strong word to use "save." What Hayez did was not prevent Paraguay from being annexed entirely, he just prevented a large region from being annexed by Argentina. And there was no way Argentina could have annexed Paraguay entirely, Brazil had already rejected Argentina's proposal and preferred to keep it as a buffer.

      @@_Hasek_ That said, if Argentina annexed the territories they wanted, Brazil would also have pushed for additional territory, and Paraguay would likely be unable to stop Bolivia from annexing the rest of the Chaco, so while not existential, Hayes did end up saving more than just that region.

    There is a pretty major error in regards to the Departmental borders between 1945 and 1973, specifically that you used the borders as they existed after 1973. Between 1945 and 1973, the Paraguayan Chaco was, as it is today, divided into 3 departments (not 5, as it was during 1973-1992) however the borders were significantly different to what they are today. An accurate map is available at Imagoteca Paraguay and is titled " Departamentos de: XIV Pte. Hayes, XV Boquerón, XVI Olimpo ". (I'm unaware if there are other differences between the post-1945 and post-1973 borders)

    At the start, Paraguay was blessed with two amazing leaders, but cursed to never since have men of their caliber in power. The first, Dr. Francia, was a brilliant visionary who gave the country its independence, developed its internal industries, and instituted compulsory education. Far too often dismissed as a tinpot dictator, he was enlightened absolutist who genuinely furthered the interests and well-being of his people. While in so much of the region, the elites prospered while the common men lived in fear, under Dr. Francia's reign, the exact opposite was true. The second, Carlos Antonio Lopez, took the model established by Dr. Francia and accelerated it to full potential, resulting in rapid economic growth, the development of modern infrastructure, and the creation of a powerful military capable of countering regional rivals.
    Then the third, Solano Lopez, bet it all on a foolhardy military campaign that pitted his countrymen against impossible odds. They fought honorably, even heroically, almost to the last man, nearly losing their country to partition among the victorious powers. I feel for Paraguay. It really makes you wonder what might have been had the country been given leaders capable of maintaining and expanding upon the former upward trajectory. Absent the disaster of the Triple Alliance, it's likely that the world would know a larger, wealthier, more influential Paraguay, one that was a flourishing beacon in the most unlikely of locations.
    But it's still very possible that, with decent, honorable leadership, the country may be restored to the glory its ancestors dedicated their lives to achieving. Like so much of the rest of the world, Paraguay needs leaders who put the interests of their people above that of their personal finances and those of their friends. The country has a great deal of potential which aches desperately for men capable of wisely harnessing it.
