Paraguay was conquered by Spanish explorers in the early 16th century, with the most notable figure being Juan de Salazar y Espinosa, who established the first Spanish settlement, Asunción, in 1537. The region was initially part of the Spanish Empire and saw the establishment of Jesuit missions and settlements. The indigenous Guarani people played a significant role in the region's early history, both as allies and adversaries of the Spanish colonizers.
