My report was done on the country of Paraguay. This is a very interesting yet different country then ours. It has many of the same features as the United States. One of them being its form of
Government, it is listed as a “Republic” on paper but has all the same principals of a “Democracy”. Also there are many differences about this country as well.

Their population under 15 years old is a large 425 highest of surrounding countries. However, the population has been growing since 1990 at a rate of almost 3.5 %.

The main spoken language is Quariani but Spanish is a close second, however this is not the Spanish we speak it is more of a dialect of the Spanish language we are studying. Also many Indian languages such as Lenqua, Nivacte, and Ache exists but these are only spoken is the forest regions of the country where very few people speak them.
Paraguay is not very “high tech” at all. In fact it has a high unemployment rate of about 8%. There are many markets for shopping but very few stores, as we know them throughout the country. The electricity is hydrogenated and also in very limited supply. Six million kilowatts on average is what is generated.
Therefore only a limited amount of buildings have power. All governmental buildings as well as 50 others. Most of Paraguay’s money is generated from a few agricultural products. Such as cotton, sugarcane, soybeans, corn, heat, tobacco, cassava (tapioca), fruits, vegetables; beef, pork, eggs, and milk.
