The Sacking of Asunción was the occupation of the Paraguayan capital carried out as of January 1, 1869 by Brazilian forces in the Triple Alliance led by General João de Souza da Fonseca Costa. Asunción was deserted, evacuated by all its inhabitants two days before. On January 5, Luís Alves de Lima e Silva, then Marquis of Caxias, entered the city with the rest of the army. Most of Caxias' army settled in Asunción, where also 4,000 Argentine and 200 Uruguayan troops soon arrived together with about 800 soldiers and officers of the Paraguayan Legion. By this time Caxias was ill and weary of the war. On January 17 he fainted during a mass, relinquished his command on the 18th and left for Montevideo on the 19th.

  • A Ocupação e saque de Assunção ocorreu a partir de 1 de janeiro de 1869 quando as forças brasileiras na Guerra do Paraguai ocuparam a capital paraguaia. Assunção ficou deserta, evacuada por todos seus habitantes e se viu cercada pelos soldados do general João de Souza da Fonseca Costa, irmão do Marechal Deodoro da Fonseca. Recordando o trágico "Saque de Assunção", o historiador argentino general José Ignacio Garmendia escreveu: Aquella ciudad solitaria sentada a la margen del tranquilo rio, sufrió, indiferente, la suerte del vencido de lejanos tiempos. El vencedor entró a saco. (pt)
