Revolución Argentina

Revolución Argentina was a military coup in 1966 that overthrew Argentina's government, ending democratic civilian rule. Led by General Juan Carlos Onganía, the coup aimed to restore order amid political instability and social unrest. The military established an authoritarian regime, suppressing political opposition, controlling media, and limiting freedoms. This period marked a shift toward military-led governance, lasting until democratic institutions were gradually restored in the 1970s. The revolution significantly impacted Argentina’s political landscape, reflecting broader Cold War tensions and struggles over authority, stability, and modernization.
