Paraguay Panteon de los Heroes A place for HeroesIn Paraguays capital, Asuncion, there is a neoclassical shrine called the Panteon de los Heroes. It holds the remains of heroes that led the country into a war called the war of the triple alliance. The shrine was started in the 1860s, before the war, it was not finished until 1636 after the Chaco war with Bolivia. A couple unknown soldiers also resign there.

A big impact A man named Chavez had started an orchestra, though the instruments were made out of trash. Chavez had started this so kids had something to do and if they had something to keep them busy, then they would not get in trouble. Why does he worry about the kids in trouble, also why does he make them out of trash? Because almost every student their lives in a landform. Usually kids start doing stupid things when bored or working. Chavez had someone make the kids instruments. The kids enjoy doing this, it shines some light in dark dirty landform. Now there are more than 200 kids at the Orchestra.
