Countries that border Paraguay

3 land neighbours: Argentina, Bolivia and Brazil. Each one has a page of its own.

Why this one is hard

3 neighbours, and 3 pairs of them border each other too.

Its 3 land borders are joint 4th-most in the Americas — level with Chile, Guyana, Honduras, Mexico and Venezuela. Of the 3 possible pairings among them, 3 are themselves borders, which is what turns a list into a knot. Brazil is the most connected of them, with 9 land borders of its own. All of them deal on the Americas board alongside Paraguay, and on the world board with everyone else in the Americas.
