Culture
Roman Catholicism is officially the country's religion, but the influence of the church is less pronounced than in many other Latin American countries. Other religious groups include fundamentalist Mennonites and the controversial New Tribes Mission, an evangelical group which operated with the collusion of Stroessner's dictatorship. Meat dishes as well as tropical and subtropical foodstuffs play an important role in the Paraguayan diet. Grains, particularly maize, and manioc (cassava) are incorporated into almost all meals. Try tucking into locro , a maize stew, mazamorra , corn mush, , a hot maize pudding with meat chunks, and sooyo sopy , a thick soup made of ground meat and served with rice or noodles. Desserts include , a delicious mix of corn, milk and molasses. Tea or mate is consumed in vast quantities while mosto (sugar-cane juice) and (cane alcohol) are also frequently imbibed.

    LANGUAGE The current population of Paraguay is the result of the blending of two ethnically and culturally diverse groups: one American, the other European, also know as Guarani and Spanish. This population has characteristics that differ to those found in other American regions. The interaction between the reduced number of Spanish and the large indigenous population has taken place since the beginning of Paraguay's conquest and colonization. This is mainly due to its geographical isolation and the absence of precious metals. Nowadays, the total Paraguayan population is practically a mixture of the two groups. Paraguayans continue to be Nationalists and much of that emotion seems to be related to the feelings about the language. In Paraguay, neither of the two languages has prevailed, making one disappear and apparently, it does not seem possible in the long run. There is a dialect known as Jopara. It cannot be considered as a new language because of the interference of Castellan on Guarani but possibly with time it can be.

    October, 2002 SGI-Taiwan Excels Again The Interior Ministry of Taiwan has selected SGI-Taiwan as an "excellent community organization" for the 10th consecutive year for its active participation in humanitarian relief efforts and activities that promote international exchange. Every year, community and cultural organizations are chosen and commended on the basis of their contributions to society and their community activities. More than 4,600 organizations in Taiwan were
    assessed for this year's selection, and the 35 that scored the highest were named excellent community organizations. SGI-Taiwan was the only organization to receive this honor for a 10th consecutive year. It was chosen for its sponsorship of a variety of activities such as seminars, culture festivals, photo exhibitions and youth friendship exchanges between Taiwan and China. An award ceremony was held on July 17 at the Jiantan Overseas Youth Activity Center in Taipei. SGI-Taiwan's National Flower Chorus performed at the event, and other SGI-Taiwan members helped behind the scenes. SGI-Taiwan General Director Lin Chao received the award certificate from Vice Interior Minister Hsu Ying-shen. Meanwhile SGI-Taiwan's fife-and-drum corps performed at the presidential palace as part of a culture event hosted by the President's Office and the Interior Ministry on August 4. The event aims to promote awareness of and support for social and welfare organizations for the disabled.

Some 600 participants discussed women's roles in peace-building based on SGI President Ikeda's 2002 peace proposal "The Humanism of the Middle WayDawn of a Global Civilization." Sir Rogélio M. Quiambao, former supreme commander of the Order of the Knights of Rizal, noted that women play key roles in the SGI's activities for peace, culture and education; and he expressed his hope that SGI women will continue to promote the betterment of all women and society as a whole. Dr. Jose V. Abueva, former president of the University of the Philippines, stressed that in order to create a world of peace, spirituality inspired by the arts should be combined with the influence of democratic leadership and the power of ordinary citizens.

    Paraguay Paraguay is South America's 'empty quarter,' a country little known even to its neighbors. For much of its history it has distanced itself from the Latin American mainstream, and for a substantial period of this century was South America's most notorious and durable police state. PJ O'Rourke summed it up bluntly when he wrote 'Paraguay is nowhere and famous for nothing,' and then, on a short visit to cover elections, promptly fell in love with the place. You might do the same since Paraguay has taken steps to overcome its political, economic and geographic isolation and now welcomes visitors. The country has a relaxed riverside capital, impressive Jesuit missions, several national parks and the vast, arid Chaco - one of South America's great wilderness areas. Full country name:

    Country Info Paraguay Introduction Paraguay General Data Paraguay Maps Paraguay Culture ... Paraguay Time and Date Paraguay Culture Back to Top Paraguayan culture is a blend chiefly of Guaranian and Spanish elements, supplemented by more recent Argentine, German, and Italian influences. The culture of Paraguay has remained isolated and therefore has retained many features introduced in the 16th and 17th centuries by the Spanish conquerors, artisans, and Jesuit missionaries. The Ateneo Paraguayo, a leading cultural center, sponsors art exhibits, lectures, and concerts, and Guaraní culture is promoted by the Academy of Guaraní Language and Culture, the Indian Association of Paraguay, and the Guaraní Theater. The main characteristic of Paraguayan culture is its fusion of both the Guaraní and Spanish traditions. Folklore, the arts, and literature reflect this dual origin. The country's outstanding handicraft is the production of ñandutí lace, which is thought to represent a combination of 16th-century needlepoint lacemaking techniques from Europe with Guaraní traditions. Social life tends to revolve around the family. Godparents are particularly important; if parents become unable to provide for their children, godparents are expected to assume responsibility for them. The family usually determines the individual's allegiance to political parties; a change of political affiliation is often considered an act of betrayal. Party membership means less the adherence to a political ideology than the unswerving support of the party's candidates. Especially in the rural areas, such loyalty is often the route to employment.
