Fidel Castro, born on August 13, 1926, in Birán, Cuba, was a prominent revolutionary leader and the longest-serving non-royal head of state in the 20th century. He came to power after leading the Cuban Revolution in 1959, overthrowing the authoritarian government of Fulgencio Batista.
During his tenure as Cuba’s Prime Minister and later President, Castro implemented socialist policies, nationalizing industries, and redistributing land to peasants. He established a one-party communist state, leading to strained relations with the United States and aligning Cuba with the Soviet Union during the Cold War, resulting in the Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962.
Throughout his rule, Castro faced numerous challenges, including economic hardships, political dissent, and human rights concerns. Despite facing multiple assassination attempts and a decades-long U.S. economic embargo, he maintained his grip on power and cultivated a cult of personality.
Castro’s leadership had both admirers and detractors. Supporters praised his efforts in education, healthcare, and social welfare, while critics condemned his suppression of political dissent and lack of democratic freedoms. After ruling for nearly five decades, Castro stepped down due to health issues in 2008, passing the presidency to his brother Raúl Castro.
On November 25, 2016, Fidel Castro died at the age of 90, leaving a complex legacy that continues to shape Cuba’s political and social landscape.
