About Ñeembucú

<p>Ñeembucú is the southernmost department of Paraguay's Región Oriental, located in the country's southwest with the Paraguay River forming the western border with Argentina. Its capital is Pilar, a city with history rooted in colonial times and the War of the Triple Alliance. Extensive cattle ranching and artisanal fishing in the many rivers, lagoons, and marshes that define this land of floodplains are the primary economic activities.</p><p>The landscape of wetlands, marshes, and rivers gives Ñeembucú a distinctive identity within Paraguay: a quiet department with a cattle and fishing economy, and a solid historical identity linked to nineteenth-century conflicts.
