  • The United Provinces of the Paranean Republic (Spanish: Provincias Unidas de la República Parana, or simply Parana) is a sovereign state located in central South America, bordered by Paraguay to the north, Brazil and Uruguay to the east, and Argentina to the south and west. The vast majority of Parana's borders are defined by two major rivers; the Uruguay River and the Parana River. Although the country possesses no coastline or exclusive economic area, it is still linked to the Atlantic Ocean through ports on the Uruguay River, which is connected via the Río de la Plata. Parana is a unitary presidential republic with a Bolivarian tricameral legislature, known as the Congress. The President, the head of state, serves a life tenure and is appointed by the preceding President. Power is shared between the three chambers of the Congress and the President, with the former creating, modifying, and enacting law and the latter enforcing legislation, serving as commander-in-chief, and otherwise representing the nation in international affairs. Specifically, the Chamber of Deputies is responsible for the formation of the government, as a vote of confidence is held every five years to select the Prime Minister from within the Chamber, and the President officially forms the government on the advice of the Prime Minister. As the lowest and only popularly-elected house of the Congress, the Deputies are responsible for matters related to commerce, public welfare, government finance, foreign affairs, and war. The middle house of the Congress, the Chamber of Senators, is hereditary, nonpartisan, and responsible for legislation related to criminal justice, civil administration, and judicial oversight. The upper house of the Congress, the Chamber of Censors, is appointed by the Chamber of Senators and serves as an apolitical ombudsman, insuring the constitutionality of action within the other areas of government in relation to the functions of the specific organs and the rights of the people at large through full veto and impeachment powers.
