Cuba profited from the economic boom that accompanied the

expansion of American manufacturing and commerce during the


Second World War when Batista was president. In 1944, Batista
discreetly stepped down as president. Later, he moved to Florida
to avoid any inquiries the new administration could make into
his years of tenacity. Right after Fulgencio Batista left office,
Dr. Martin assumed the persistent role. When the Cubans
learned that he was constructing a rural home replete with a
private zoo and stable, they soon began to despise him. Along
with erecting it, a cabinet minister also drove a truck loaded with
millions of dollars' worth of luggage to the airport and flew to
Miami, where immigration authorities accepted him as a
political refugee. Following those few administrations, the
Cuban people were the worst and demanded Batista's return.
When Batista reappeared for this second run of performances in
1952–1959, he had undergone a dramatic transformation. He
was no longer the president who genuinely cared about these
folks. However, he never intended for it to happen; instead, it
was the populace that shaped Batista into the despicable figure
he became. The lectures and student unrest in Hanover were the
first issue Her confronted during his second term as president,
and he decided to close the institutions. The dominance of the
American economy was the second issue. 90% of the telephone
and electrical systems, 50% of the highways and public
transportation, 40% of the raw sugar, and 25% of all bank
deposits in Cuba are owned by the United States. Unfortunately,
Batista was helpless to change anything since the gravity of the
issue was too great. The absence of unemployment and the
decline in the cost of commodities constituted the third issue. He
tried his best to contribute to short-term public labor projects
like creating tunnels beneath Havana Bay. In addition to creating
jobs for the jobless by creating tunnels beneath Havana Bay, he
was also preparing his escape route since he anticipated that the
populace would one day turn against him. When people went on
strikes, it became the fourth issue. Batista abandoned any
pretense of embracing criticism and the right to free expression;
instead, he adopted a mafia mentality. He requested that they
stop shouting and protesting.
In 1958, Fidel Castro's rebel troops launched a successful
campaign that ultimately resulted in the overthrow of his
government. On January 1, 1959, Batista fled with his family to
the Dominican Republic due to the fall of his dictatorship and
the rising unhappiness of his followers. He then spent time in
exile on the Portuguese island of Madeira before relocating to
Estoril, close to Lisbon.
