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.
