The rebels trying to overthrow the Sandinista government in Nicaragua were primarily known as the Contras, a group formed in the early 1980s. They received support from the United States, particularly during the Reagan administration, which viewed the Sandinista government as a Marxist threat in Central America. The conflict between the Contras and the Sandinista government led to a brutal civil war that lasted throughout the 1980s, resulting in significant loss of life and widespread suffering. Ultimately, the conflict ended with a peace agreement in 1990, leading to democratic elections and a change in government.
