On January 1, 1959, the triumph of the Cuban Revolution occurred. The Rebel Army, made up of students, peasants and workers all led by Fidel Castro, took over the country by toppling dictator Fulgencio Batista, a ruler bent on U.S. interests. A revolutionary government was set up, taking account of the impending need at the time to improve economic, political, social and cultural conditions for the Cuban people and to introduce profound social changes.
