Indigenous peoples in Paraguay, or Native Paraguayans, include 17 ethnic groups belonging to five language families.[1][2] While only a 1.7% of Paraguay's population is fully indigenous, 75% of the population identifies as being partially of indigenous descent;[3] however, the majority do not identify as being indigenous but as Mestizos. Most of the native population lives in the northwestern part of the country, the Gran Chaco.
