The Cuban Revolution was a socialist revolution of national liberation that triumphed in Cuba on January 1st 1959 led by Fidel Castro's 26th of July Movement (M-26-7) against the neocolonial military regime of Fulgencio Batista.

While the M-26-7 was not an explicitly Marxist–Leninist organization, its top leadership was largely dominated by Marxist–Leninists such as Fidel Castro, Raúl Castro and Che Guevara, and its earliest announced goals were intentionally kept moderate in order to retain integral support from liberal elements (such as the primarily student-based Revolutionary Directorate) as well as international support from countries hostile to communism.

-The '''Cuban Revolution''' is a revolutionary process that began to take shape at the end of the 19th century when the mambises produced an attempt to gain Cuba's independence from the Spanish regime, in which the Liberation Army played an important role. It was an example of patriotism and courage which was inherited by the young generation of the mid-twentieth century. Fidel Castro, in command of the Rebel Army, waged a new strategy of armed struggle against Batista's dictatorship. Their efforts led to the revolutionary 1959 triumph from which, for over 50 years, the Cuban intelligence, capacity for resistance, and ability of the revolutionary leadership have been maintained.
