Wait, Paraguay have terrorists?! Never heard of that before. I thought it was the more northern countries that have terrorism problems from rebels and drug syndicates.

Most of the Latin American nations are effected by either left-wing or right-wing extremism, and Paraguay is no exception. You might have heard about the FARC and ELN of Colombia and the Shining Path of Peru. But the extremist groups in Paraguay are not that well known and are composed of only a few dozen lightly armed militants. The most well known group in Paraguay is the Ejército del Pueblo Paraguayo or the EPP. They are allied to the FARC of Colombia.
