"I began revolution with 82 men. If I had to do it again, I do it with 10 or 15 and absolute faith. It does not matter how small you are if you have faith and plan of action." Fidel Castro, leader of Cuba, has been a main focus of international controversy. Castro's dreams as a young child did not revolve around the ideal of being a leader, for they were revolved around education and physical activity. Castro then chose the route of education and attended Law School at the University of Havana. He then led the failed 1953 attack on the Moncada Barracks but he was captured, incarcerated and later released. He then traveled to Mexico to organize and train for an invasion of Cuba to overthrow Batista's government, which began in December 1956. He eventually came to power in Cuba and overthrew the U.S. He completely transformed Cuba from there on.
