The Republic of Cuba is a country located in the Caribbean, the largest island of the West Indies. Cuba, Jamaica, Hispaniola, and Puerto Rico make up the Greater Antilles archipelago. The population is approximately 11 million people.
The Government of Cuba is a totalitarian communist state. The current government came to power in 1959 when the lawyer, Fidel Castro, led a socialist revolution against the oppressive dictatorial regime of Fulgencio Batista. Batista fled the country on January 1, 1959, and Castro became the leader. In 2008 Castro stepped down, and his brother, Raul Castro, assumed the presidency.
When relations with the United States soured, Cuba began to receive aid from the Soviet Union. With the collapse of the USSR in 1991, the economy greatly suffered from the loss of the significant financial support that Cuba had received from the USSR. In recent years, tourism has brought some economic relief.
Tourists to Cuba enjoy beautiful beaches, tour Old Havana, walk along the Malecon, visit museums, such as the Museum of the Revolution, and enjoy the music that is pervasive throughout the country.
