The Guatemalan Coup in the 19th Century

Guatemalan coup in the 19 fifties was a significant influence on how the united states went about trying to stop the cuban revolution less than a decade later. Guatemala is where deathq, people practised in the art of disappearing and murdering political dissidents, were created in the 19 sixties. It's the story of a neo colony that was forced to stick to the american script rather than be allowed to determine its own future. What came after the overthrow of arbens became carnage, destruction and misery for most guatemalans.
