Recent Dominican Republic
In 1930
the Dominican Republic fell under a dictatorship for more than
31 years until the
assassination of the dictator.
This caused great political tension and revolts to which the
US responded by
invading the island in 1965-66.
Reformist party member, Joaquin Balaguer
Riardo has been president from
1966 to 1978 and again from 1986 to the present.
