Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Paraguayan Question: The Alliance Between Brazil, the Argentine Confederation and Uruguay, Versus the Dictator of Paraguay, Claims of the Republics of Peru and Bolivia in Regard to This Alliance The violation of the first-named treaty by the iron dictatorship of General Don Juan Manuel Rosas, gave occasion for the other treaties and the principles subsequently adopted in 1859, to secure the entire and absolute independence and sovereignty of the Oriental Republic of Uruguay in her foreign relations. Said treaties establish the equilibrium of the La Plata countries, which, according to the declaration of General Lopez, present Dictator of Paraguay, was endangered on the 30th August, 1864, by the mere fact that the Government of Brazil, with the assent of its other ally, demanded just satisfaction from the Government illegally in power at that time in Uruguay, for the atrocious offences committed against Brazilian subjects there residing, in disregard and in open violation of the existing treaties. The incident to which we have just alluded, and which interrupted for a while the intimate and friendly relations between the Empire and the Oriental Republic of Uruguay, ended, however, very satisfactorily, by the agreement signed in Montevideo on the 20th February, 1865, by which the alliance between Brazil and the States of La Plata became still more firmly established. This question solely affected the States already mentioned, and did not affect the security or the interests of the Republic of Paraguay, which was, in fact, so remote from the theatre of events, and with which the Empire was in perfect peace.
