Paraguayan War
Paraguay once imposed a polygamous marriage system, and everything was related to a war that determined the future and fate of Paraguay! And to this day, this war still deeply affects the development of the Paraguayan country! So, how tragic is this war? Can it determine the future and destiny of the country of Paraguay?
Between 1864 and 1870, a large-scale war took place on the distant South American continent, known as the "Triple Alliance War" or the "Paraguayan War". The two warring sides were the Triple Alliance of Paraguay against Brazil, Argentina and Uruguay, the deadliest and bloodiest war in the history of South America!

How did this war end? In this war, Paraguay was defeated, resulting in heavy casualties among the country's soldiers and civilians, with losses amounting to hundreds of thousands. To make matters worse, Paraguay was also ceded access to the sea, and since then Paraguay has become a landlocked country. Such a result, for a country with a small area and an already small population, was undoubtedly a disaster, so that it took many years to recover from the war.
In this war, the whole country of Paraguay, from 60-year-olds to teenagers, in order to defend their homeland, all were integrated into the army, almost all the people were soldiers! But the result was heart-wrenching, and Paraguay ended in a crushing defeat due to the disparity in strength. This makes the already sparsely populated country undoubtedly worse!

At the beginning of the war, the total population of Paraguay was only 530,000, and after the war, it plummeted to about 200,000, and after the war, Paraguay was devastated, the population was devastated, and the land was deserted. Since the men who died in the war were Paraguayan, after the end of the war, there were less than 30,000 men, and it is worth mentioning that the old, weak, sick and disabled accounted for the majority!
Netizens think about it, in a country, there are only about 30,000 men left, what will be the future of this country? After the sharp reduction of a large number of people, Paraguay has been responsible for all kinds of production activities for a long time, and the role of women in holding up half of the sky is highlighted! At that time in Paraguay, the serious imbalance between men and women was exposed.

Therefore, after the end of the war, restoring the population was a top priority for the Paraguayan government at that time! In order to encourage people to have children and alleviate the serious imbalance between men and women, the Government began to enforce polygamous marriage, and even stipulated in the law that a man must have at least three wives. What happens if a man becomes an adult and remains single without looking for a partner? The law also stipulates that such people will be thrown into prison, and they will be treated as if they were eaten in prison! For a time, men were forced by the pressure of the law to marry three wives to avoid jail time!
After the introduction of polygamous marriage, Paraguay had barely returned to normal after nearly a century of adjustment, and the proportion of men had increased significantly.
However, such a policy has left Paraguayan men bitter. Paraguay is a paradise for men, why do local men think so?
Ordinary Paraguayan family
Paraguay is a man's paradise and has practiced polygamous marriage for a long time! But what netizens didn't expect was that local men were in the blessing and did not know the blessing, why did the system that seemed to be men's welfare complain? Why don't Paraguayan women marry non-nationals?
Paraguay, which had long practiced polygamous marriage, had only been able to normalize its population and the proportion of men had increased markedly over time. But in the eyes of local men, in the face of such a marriage system, it is bitter. This is all because of Paraguay's backward economic situation. Due to the proliferation of female populations, few jobs are available to them.
This also leaves the country's men to bear all the economic pressures that come with family life. And this will also accumulate more and more conflicts as the number of wives in the family increases. It is worth noting that Paraguay stipulates in the law that divorce is not possible, and all kinds of pressure make ordinary Paraguayan men almost unbearable. Netizen comment: It seems that Paraguay is very similar to China, men are the heads of the family, and they have to bear very heavy responsibilities!

For women in Paraguay, they are happy in the context of polygamy. If it were not expressly stipulated and enforced in the law, they would face the fate of being leftover women for the rest of their lives! Some netizens will wonder, why don't Paraguayan women marry foreigners? It turned out that in the Paraguayan policy, in order to prevent the decline of the country's population, it was forbidden for domestic women to marry abroad.
Polygamous marriage is a very good benefit for wealthy men in Paraguay. After all, money can represent everything, you can find a few wives if you want to, and you have money. However, there are also many poor people in Paraguay, and the vast majority of men have average economic conditions, and such a marriage system is simply a nightmare hanging over their heads for this group of people.
As the number of wives continues to increase, the economic pressure also increases, and the local men feel that this marriage system is not happy at all, and they feel like their bodies are hollowed out every day, not only to carry it alone, raise several wives and several children, but even support several fathers-in-law and mothers-in-law! Come to think of it, if you were a Paraguayan man, would you still marry so many wives? Netizen message: Yali Mountain Da!

The most important thing is that you have to endure family conflicts such as jealousy between several wives, and every day Zhen Huan Chuan is staged, and no one can stand it! This made men physically and mentally exhausted, overwhelmed, and very painful, so many men demanded the abolition of this system.
It wasn't until 2010, when Paraguay's population had recovered to nearly 7 million, that the government legally abolished polygamy, informing citizens that it was no longer mandatory for men to marry multiple women. However, a system was maintained that prohibited divorce in polygamous families. That is to say, in the family that has had several wives before, it is still necessary to continue to maintain and live, and cannot divorce.

Today, Paraguay is on a steady path to modernization at the pace of a new era, although it is still a slightly backward country. It is hoped that the people of Paraguay can rejuvenate the country through continuous efforts and struggles and become a rare pearl in South America!
