6 Jul 1953 Jahr - Fidel Castro becomes leader of Cuba

Beschreibung:

Fidel Castro becomes prime minister, after leading a revolutionary force to dismantle the regime of General Bautista. Castro declared a Marxist government. He established an agrarian economy. Many of the wealthy attempted to overthrow Castro from the US, which failed spectacularly (Bay of Pigs). The Soviet Union aided Fidel Castro, and left missiles in Cuba. This showed the growth of Communism, as it was the first communist state in the Western Hemisphere.
