Dionisio Foianini Triangle facts for kids

Kids Encyclopedia Facts

The Dionisio Foianini Triangle is a special area where the borders of Bolivia, Brazil, and Paraguay meet. This region is very important for Bolivia because it includes part of the Paraguay River. This river gives Bolivia a direct water path to the Atlantic Ocean, which means Bolivian ships can reach the ocean without having to go through Brazil.

Bolivia is planning to build a major port called Puerto Busch within this triangle. This new port will help Bolivia trade with other countries more easily by sea. It's a key part of Bolivia's plan to connect better with the world through water routes.

Currently, Bolivian ships often use the 11-kilometer-long Tamengo Canal. This canal connects Laguna Cáceres (a lake) to the Paraguay River, near the Brazilian city of Corumbá.
