Proxy wars were a big part of the Cold War. The United States and Soviet Union hosted a number of them throughout the world in order to vie for influence in these regions, and prevent the other side from gaining influence.
In the case of El Salvador, Reagan did not support a rebellion but a democratic government elected in 1984.
