46 years ago today, July 17, 1979 (June 24, 1979 in the lunar calendar), the Somocha family was overthrown. The Somoza family was a prominent family that exercised dictatorship in Nicaragua during the 1930s and 1970s. Somoza Anastacio Somoza Garcia (1896-1956) was a translator for the U.S. Marine Corps in Nicaragua and Secretary of Defense of Nicaragua. In 1934, when he was commander of the National Guard, he assassinated Sandinista, the national hero of the War against U.S. Aggression; in 1936, he launched a military coup and seized power; He served as president twice in 1937 and 1956, until he was assassinated in 1956. After the death of Somoza Sr., his son Luis Somoza de Waile served as president until 1936. In order to ease the resistance of the Nicaragua people, between 1963 and 1976, the Somoza family used their agents to serve as puppet presidents, and they manipulated the situation behind the scenes. In 1967, Luis Somoza's brother, Anastasio Somoza de Waile, became president and resigned "voluntarily" in 1972, but still retained real power as commander of the National Guard. In the 1974 election, he was re-elected as president. The Somocha family exercised fascist rule in the country, suppressed progressive forces, arrested and persecuted progressives in large numbers, and tens of thousands of people were brutally killed. In terms of diplomacy, it has signed various military and economic agreements with the United States, giving the United States direct control of Nicaragua's military and economic lifeblood.

It was overthrown on July 17, 1979, and the Somocha Dynasty, which lasted for 43 years, was destroyed.
