Paraguay, officially the Republic of Paraguay (Spanish: República del Paraguay, is a landlocked country in South America. It is bordered by Argentina to the south and southwest, Brazil to the east and northeast, and Bolivia to the northwest. Paraguay lies on both banks of the Paraguay River, which runs through the centre of the country from north to south. Due to its central location in South America, it is sometimes referred to as Corazón de América, or the Heart of America. The capital and largest city is Asunción. The official languages are Spanish and Guaraní, both being widely spoken in the country. Most of the population are mestizos. The Guaraní have been living in Paraguay since prior to the arrival of Europeans in the 16th century, when Paraguay became part of the Spanish colonial empire. Paraguay gained independence from Spain in 1811. Paraguay is divided by the Río Paraguay into the eastern region, called Eastern Paraguay (Paraguay Oriental) and known as the Paraná region; and the western region, officially called Western Paraguay (Paraguay Occidental) and also known as the Chaco. The terrain consists of grassy plains and wooded hills in the east. To the west, there are mostly low, marshy plains. The national coat of arms of Paraguay ("Escudo de Armas") has the following construction: Round, white background, red border with the inscription: "República de Paraguay", to the left a green palm branch and to the right a green olive branch, and both are tied together. In the middle there is a five-point yellow star. The reverse of the arms features a lion, in front of a staff and liberty cap, with the inscription "Paz Y Justicia", meaning “peace and justice”. While probably most prominent on the reverse of the national flag, reverse of the seal is also used by the Supreme Court of Paraguay, and is featured alongside the obverse on banknotes of the national currency, the Guaraní.
