Cuban Revolution Journal
The Cuban Revolution, which ended Fulgencio Batista’s regime in 1959, brought both significant changes and elements of continuity to Cuba.
Changes:
- Overthrow of Batista’s Regime: The revolution resulted in the end of Fulgencio Batista’s rule in Cuba. It replaced Batista’s regime with a socialist government led by Fidel Castro, starting a socialist government led by Fidel Castro, establishing a one-party system.
- Political Reforms: Cuba underwent significant transformations in politics and the economy, including the establishment of a socialist government, land reforms, and nationalization of industries.
Continuity:
- Leadership: Fidel Castro played a prominent role in leading Cuba after the revolution.
- Strained U.S. and Cuba relations: The relationship between Cuba and the United States remained tense, with ongoing economic sanctions.
The Cuban Revolution brought significant changes to Cuba, but some aspects, like leadership and political structure, continued. While some might say that the Revolution was something good for the Cuba but I don’t think so at all. Some might say that Castro brought them out from Batista control but I would say that Castro didn’t make much difference like Batista. Castro has caused more problems after the revolution that has caused more people to leave the country compared to when Batista have control. As a result, I don’t think that the revolution did bring any good to the country in general, nor was the revolution worthful.
