In 1970, Salvador Allende was elected as the president of Chile, becoming the first Marxist to be elected to the presidency of a Latin American country through open elections. His government aimed to implement socialist reforms, which led to significant social and political tensions in the country. These tensions culminated in a military coup on September 11, 1973, which resulted in Allende's death and the establishment of a military Dictatorship under General Augusto Pinochet.
