The Cuban Revolution was the overthrow of Fulgencio Batista’s regime by the 26th of July Movement and the establishment of a new Cuban government led by Fidel Castro in the 1950s. It began with the assault on the Moncada Barracks on July 26, 1953, and ended on January 1, 1959, when Batista was driven from the country and the cities Santa Clara and Santiago de Cuba were seized by rebels, led by Che Guevara and Fidel Castro's surrogates Raul Castro and Huber Matos, respectively. The term "Cuban Revolution" is also used to refer to the social revolution after the overthrow in 1959 to present and the adoption of Marxist principles by the new Cuban Government.

Ponce de León, Juan\n(pŏns d  lē´ŏn, Span. hwän pōn´thā dā lāōn´) , c.1460—1521, Spanish explorer, first Westerner to reach Florida. He served against the Moors of Granada, and in 1493 he accompanied Columbus on his second voyage to America. From 1502 to 1504 he assisted in the conquest of Higuey (the eastern part of Hispaniola, now the Dominican Republic) and was made governor of that province. After finding gold on Boriquén (Puerto Rico) in 1508, he conquered the island and, as governor (1509—12), made a fortune in gold, slaves, and land. Hearing tales from the Carib of a wonderfully rich island called Bimini, said to be N of Cuba, Ponce de León secured a commission (1512) to conquer and colonize that land. There is a legend that he was seeking a spring with waters having the power of restoring youth. From Puerto Rico on Mar. 3, 1513, with three vessels, he sailed NE through the Bahamas, sighting the Florida peninsula (which he took to be an island) late in March and landing near the site of St. Augustine early in April. Probably because his arrival in Florida occurred at the time of the Easter feast (Pascua Florida), Ponce de León named the land (which he claimed for Spain) La Florida. He turned south, exploring the coast to Key West, and proceeded up the west coast as far as Cape Romano. Then, retracing his route, he sailed to Miami Bay via Cuba and from there returned to Puerto Rico, arriving Sept. 21, 1513. After partly pacifying Puerto Rico, which had been in revolt, he sailed to Spain, where the king commissioned him (Sept., 1514) to subdue the Carib of Guadeloupe and to conquer and colonize the "isle of Florida." In 1515 he led an unsuccessful expedition against the Carib and returned to Puerto Rico, where he resided until 1521. With two vessels, 200 men, 50 horses and other domestic animals, and farm implements, he sailed for Florida in 1521. Upon landing on the west coast, probably in the vicinity of Charlotte Harbor or Tampa Bay, his party was fiercely attacked by Native Americans, and he was severely wounded by an arrow. The expedition sailed immediately for Cuba, where Ponce de León soon died.

Lieutenant Francisco Gonzalo Marin a.k.a. Pachin Marin (March 9, 1863-November 1897) born in Arecibo, Puerto Rico, designer of the Puerto Rican Flag was a poet and journalist who fought alongside Jose Marti as a member of the Cuban Liberation Army.\n\n \nLt. Francisco Gonzalo Marin Marin was raised in Arecibo, town in which he received both his primary and secondary education. It was a period in history when the last two remaining Spanish Colonies in the Antilles, Puerto Rico and Cuba were demanding either more autonomy or full independence. Marin himself was a believer of the independence cause and openly advocated his ideas. He had an older brother, Wencenlao Marin, whom he admired and with whom he shared his ideals. Marin expressed his love for his country in his poems and in the newspaper he founded, "El Postillon".\n\nMarin's brother enlisted in the Cuban Liberation Army which was fighting the Spanish Crown and was given the rank of Lieutenant. In the meantime, Marin was the victim of political persecution by the Spanish Government in the island and went into exile to the Dominican Republic in 1889 and to Venezuela in 1890.\n\nIn 1892, Marin received the tragic news that his brother Lt. Wencenlao Marin had perished in the Battle of Manigua in Cuba. This motivated Marin to travel to New York City and enlist in the Cuban Liberation Army. The New York headquarters of the Cuban Army was situated in the New York offices of the Cuban Revolutionary Party. The person registering the volunteers when Marin went to enlist was Jose Marti. The meeting of the two was the beginning of a friendship which was cut short by the death of Marti in 1895. Marin is credited with designing the Puerto Rican Flag. He used the Cuban Flag as a model and inverted the colors in the flags triangle and stripes. He presented the flag in New York's "Chimney Corner Hall" a gathering place of independence advocates. The flag soon came to symbolize the ideals of the Puerto Rican independence movement. It should be noted that some people believe that Manuel Besosa was the designer , based on a letter written by his daughter where she says, "...my father asked me to sew together some pieces of cloth, white, red and blue that he brought himself , this tiny flag had 5 alterned stripes, red and white, and a triangle with a five point star within it...".\n\nSoon, Marin found himself fighting in Cuba where he was given the rank of Lieutenant. On November 1897 Lt. Francisco Gonzalo Marin died from the wounds he received during a skirmish against the Spanish Army.\n\nThe Puerto Rican Flag designed by Marin was approved by the Government of Puerto Rico on July 24, 1952, making it the official flag of Puerto Rico. However, the flag adopted by the government was slightly different. Instead of a light blue triangle, preffered by the independence movement, the government approved a dark blue triangle similar to the blue used in the flag of the United States. The City of Arecibo named an Avenue in his honor.

One of the leaders that fought against Spanish rule in the Philippines was Andres Bonifacio he headed the KKK (Kataastaasan Kagalanggalangan ng Katipunan). Among over revolutionaries were Apolinario Mabini (the Brains of the Katipunan) and Tangdang Sora (the Mother of the Katipunan). Andres Bonificio was from the masses and had different opinions in terms of how to fight against the Spaniards from those of Jose Rizal. Jose Rizal preferred a bloodless revolution but the KKK wanted an all out revolt.
