List of Catholic dioceses in Paraguay
The diocesan system of Catholic church government in Paraguay comprises only a Latin hierarchy, joint in the nation episcopal conference, no Eastern Catholic jurisdiction :
- one ecclesiastical province, headed by a Metropolitan archbishop. The provinces are in turn subdivided into eleven suffragan dioceses, each headed by a bishop.
- two missionary, pre-diocesan (exempt) Apostolic Vicariates
- the also exempt military Ordinariate.
All defunct jurisdictions are direct precursors of current ones.
There is also an Apostolic Nunciature to Paraguay as papal diplomatic representation (embassy level).

gollark: Also, generally poor type system, *awful* error handling, resistance to abstractiona nd general design which treats the programmer as if they cannot make their own decisions.
gollark: Oh, and channels are a somewhat bad concurrency primitive.
gollark: Also how they have their own assembly language which is like AMD64 but slightly different, uses ALL CAPS to "emphasise that assembly is dangerous" or something, and uses ·s in symbol names for horrible reasons.
