The great reform - 1951 On March 15, the new candidate of the Renovacion party, Colonel Jacobo Arbenz, assumes the presidency. Arbenz orders large infrastructure works and replaces the industrialization of the country; thanks to its marked nationalist tendency it receives the support of workers, peasants, teachers and students. Arbenz expropriates foreign companies especially the United Fruit Company and the reform becomes one of the deepest in Latin America.
The reform gives credits for production and training. And in 2 years the regime gives land to more than 100,000 farmers, who are organized for the first time in agrarian committees. A revolution supported by students, teachers, politicians, workers and soldiers who try to overcome the old inequalities seems to have triumphed.

This coup with the support of the local Liberquia and the Catholic Church, that coup triumphs in 1954 and made back the greatest achievements of the revolution.
