Paraná is one of Brazil's 26 states, located in the country's south, bordered on the north by So Paulo state, on the east by the Atlantic Ocean, on the south by Santa Catarina state and Argentina's province of Misiones, and on the west by Mato Grosso do Sul and Paraguay, with the Paraná River as its western boundary line. It is split into 399 municipalities, with Curitiba serving as the capital. Londrina, Maringá, Ponta Grossa, Cascavel, So José dos Pinhais, and Foz do Iguaçu are all important cities. The state is home to 5.4% of the Brazilian population and accounts for 6.2% of the Brazilian GDP.

Crossed by the Tropic of Capricorn, Paraná is home to what remains of the araucaria forest, one of the world's most significant subtropical forests. The Iguaçu National Park, near the border with Argentina, is a UNESCO World Heritage site. The biggest dam in the world, the Hidroelétrica de Itaipu, was erected barely 40 kilometers (25 miles) away, near the border with Paraguay (Itaipu Hydroelectric Dam). The crime rate is low by Brazilian standards, and the state is one of the most developed in the country, ranking fourth in terms of GDP, only after Rio de Janeiro, So Paulo, and Minas Gerais.
