1876 CE to 1887 CE

The political rivalry between Paraguay's Liberals and Colorados had been presaged as early as 1869 when the terms Azules (Blues) and Colorados (Reds) first appeared.

The National Republican Association-Colorado Party (Asociacion Nacional Republicana-Partido Colorado) will dominate Paraguayan political life from the late 1880s until Liberals overthrow it in 1904.

The Liberal ascent marks the decline of Brazil, which had supported the Colorados as the principal political force in Paraguay, and the rise of Argentine influence.
