THE HISTORY OF CUBA

Fidel Alejandro castro ruz,who stepped out from the cuban politics recently.He is considered as one of the greatest leaders of the world.He might be a single man but he had the courage and confidence to challenge the country which is supposed to be the super power in this world,America.Most of them would have seen Fidel castro with a cigar in his hand with a stern look in his face,and i too misunderstood him to be a dictator of cuba.But i was wrong,he was the man who succeeded in getting the country out of a corrupt and American dominated ruling.





THE HISTORY FIDEL CASTRO
Fidel castro was born in the year 1926 and he graduated as a lawyer from the university of Havana.Castro wanted to remove General Batista,who was the ruler at that time.Batista was not an able leader and was a puppet in the hands of the American goverment.Castro initially failed to remove him through a revolt which he organized in the year 1953 and he was arrested as a war prisoner and was barred for 2 years.After that he reorganized everything for another revolt.Castro with the help of the veteran "Che" Guevara was successful in ousting Batista through the Guerilla war.Castro then became the Prime minister.He then formed a close alliance with the soviet union.This provoked the United states to invade cuba to throw Castro out of power.And this resulted in the Cuban Missile Crisis and the world was at the verge of another nuclear war.And the war was actually stopped.The next barrier for Castro was that of the breaking of Soviet Union into pieces.This forced Castro to legalize American Dollar and allow some private enterprises to invest in their country.
Castro as a person has nearly faced 11 American president till his date of resignation.He is definitely a symbol of courage and character.He holds the record for being in the office for nearly 50 years.He is not a coward to run from his duties,Castro in his message to cuba had emphasized on the fact that the ruler should be mobile and energetic,But unfortunately because of his health he is not energetic physically but definitely no other person in this world can be mentally strong as this tall cuban leader is.
The famous quote of Castro-"an ability to forge victory from defeat".I am sure most of u would agree that Castro was a man of words and he is surely the best leader.
