History
The Communist Party of Chile was founded in 1912 and was known as the Socialist Workers' Party until 1922.[1] In 1969, It joined the Popular Unity alliance with the Socialist Party of Chile and various other leftist parties in the country. The party supported Salvador Allende, a socialist who was elected president in 1970. After Augusto Pinochet's CIA-supported coup in 1973, the party was banned.[2] In 1983, it established a guerrilla organization and was legalized in 1990 after the Pinochet's junta ended.
