Modern Paraguay
The small town of Asuncion
grew in power until the politically elite citizens of Asuncion declared Paraguay
independent
in 1813. From 1813 to 1870 Paraguay remained stable under authoritarian rule. Throughout the
17th
century Jesuit missionaries established many missions throughout southern Paraguay.
There was considerable tension
between the Jesuit missionaries & the elite of Asuncion.
