- Paraná_River_steamers abstract "The Paraná River is the second longest river in South America. Rising in Brazil, the river winds from the coastal mountains through tributaries and travels over Iguazu Falls 3,000 miles (4,828 km) into Paraguay, Argentina and the Rio de la Plata at Uruguay. The river allowed for transport and exploration of the continent. It also was the scene of some terrible wars, including naval.The River Plate Republics arose from the fall of the Spanish Empire in South America after 1811. The devolution of the colony into smaller republics because of Napoleons conquest of Spainfirst allowed the Viceroyalty of the Rio de la Plata into an autonomous country, and then it followed the trend that transpired over Latin America—dissolution into a patchwork of fractured republics. Part of this was the result of insular territories and regionalism owing to the great distances involved. This was the age of travel by oxcart.The arrival of the steamboat helped shorten those distances. The wars of independence and the intervention from European powers meant that the colonies were slow to modernize.The Europeans had large steam merchant and naval ships became capable of sailing up rivers at a good speed and with a heavy load. Lord Palmerston was the first to propose the use of steamers for commerce along the internal waters of Argentina in 1841. This technology allowed the British and French governments to avoid Argentine custom houses in Buenos Aires by sailing directly through the La Plata estuary and engaging in commerce directly with the Argentinian inland cities. This avoided taxation, guaranteed special rights for the Europeans and allowed them to export their products cheaply.Rosas' government tried to stop this practice by declaring the Argentine rivers closed to foreign countries, barring access to Paraguay and other ports in the process. The British and French governments did not acknowledge this declaration and decided to defy Rosas by sailing upstream with a joint fleet, setting the stage for a military confrontation, which eventually took place at the Battle of Vuelta de Obligado,The first steamers on the Paraná River were around 1840 with naval vessels. The Argentine navy built the PS Merced in 1849. The ability of vessels to go upstream was an asset. It allowed the supply of inland republics like Paraguay.The rivalry between Argentina, Brazil and Paraguay in the 1840s meant that Argentina closed the river to international trade, bottling up Paraguay.A new Argentine government under Justo José de Urquiza opened the river to international trade in 1852.".
