* * *Chaco nmel (Gran) Chaco the Chaco, = vast region of scrubland and swamp shared by Argentina, Bolivia and ParaguayLA GUERRA DEL CHACOBetween 1932 and 1935, Bolivia and Paraguay fought a bloody war over claims to the Chaco region, a large barren area which straddles both countries. Believed at the time to be rich in oil, the region had been disputed since colonial times because the border was inaccurately drawn. The Foreign Minister of Argentina eventually brokered a peace treaty between the two countries in 1938 and received the Nobel Peace Prize as a result. The treaty conceded 75 percent of the disputed territory to Paraguay but gave Bolivia the right to use the rivers of the region to gain access to the Atlantic Ocean. During the war, over 100,000 people died in combat or from disease, and the political and economic repercussions were felt for decades in both countries.
