Rio Negro

Few cities in Paraná have a history as closely tied to the settlement of the state border with Santa Catarina as Rio Negro. The Rio Negro river runs beside the city and separates it from Mafra on the opposite bank, making the two urban centres closely connected despite belonging to different states. This borderland was affected by the long Paraná–Santa Catarina territorial dispute, resolved by an agreement in 1916 after the Contestado conflict. Today, Rio Negro is a small southern Brazilian city whose identity is shaped by river geography, regional ties and its place on a historic state boundary.
