I am writing a report about Fidel Castro. He is famous for taking
Control of Cuba in 1959 and established a communist dictatorship. He was
Born in Mayari on August 13,1927. As a boy he worked in his family sugar
Plantation. Castro went to the University of Havana in 1945 and got his
Degree in law in 1950. Castro married Mirta Diaz Balart. They only had one
Son and soon after they had their son his wife divorced him in 1955. As a
Lawyer he defended the poor and he was a candidate for the Cuban
Congress.

Years they escaped guerrila firing. The dictator that was in Cuba fled in
January 1,1959 because his army collapse, and unable to count on the
Support of the United States. This made they way for Castro’s rise to power.

Owned by United States. On April 1961 Cubans exiled to the United States.

Power. Cuba aligned itself with the Soviet Union, which granted Cuba

Some international prestige. Castro believes that he has a revolution duty to
Fight imperialism in the developing world. He remains a critic of the U.S
