Communist movements gained power in several Latin American countries during the 20th century, most notably in Cuba with the 1959 revolution led by Fidel Castro. Other significant instances include the establishment of Marxist-oriented governments in Nicaragua under the Sandinistas in the 1980s and moments of influence in countries like Chile with Salvador Allende's presidency from 1970 until his overthrow in 1973. Additionally, various guerrilla movements and leftist parties have sought to gain power in countries such as Venezuela and Bolivia, particularly in the late 20th and early 21st centuries.
