This article aims to prepare a record of Brazil-Uruguay’s border and the border dispute between Portugal and Spain, in order to understand Aceguá’s current context better. To achieve that, a documentary and bibliographic research on the local history and geography has been conducted, besides the analysis of the current conditions of the border development. This is an unprecedented research about Aceguá, including historical information which has not been published before. Therefore, the main focus is to register and to document this community from the conception of what is the border, of the history of the Luso-Spanish border in America and of the current history of Aceguá border.
