The History of Cuba and the US
So cuba got somewhat freed from spain. The whole reason they did was because of the US. And once they got free we kept them up and operating by having a military base there and spending a lot of money there. The island was a very popular spot that americas mobsters liked to hangout and gamble. In fact they practically ran the place for a while. Then they got overtook by dictators. That took all of the peoples rights. And ran the economy into the ground. They also hated america. This led to castro having the soviet union place missile silos facing florida. We took action and was willing to fight over this but they took them down quickly. Castro was a dictator over cuba for 10 presidential terms. That is a crazy long time to hurt one place. Spite the US trying to kill him dozens of times they had none successful. And he ended up stepping down because of illness.
