    Cuba is an island nation in the Caribbean Sea south of Florida known for its history, culture, and unique political system. Cuba gained independence from Spain in 1902 but experienced significant political changes with the 1959 Cuban Revolution led by Fidel Castro, which established a socialist state led by the Communist Party of Cuba. Cuba has a mixed economy combining socialist principles with some market activities, and faces challenges from the U.S. embargo and the collapse of the Soviet Union, though it maintains strengths in sectors like healthcare, education, and biotechnology. The Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962 brought the U.S. and Soviet Union close to nuclear war over the Soviet deployment of missiles in Cuba.

    WRITTEN REPORT

    Cuba, officially known as the Republic of Cuba, is an island nation situated in the
    Caribbean Sea, just south of Florida in the United States. Known for its rich history,
    vibrant culture, and distinctive political and economic landscape, Cuba has long been a
    subject of international fascination. Cuba is the largest island in the Caribbean archipelago
    and is characterized by diverse landscapes, including fertile plains, mountains, and
    beautiful beaches. The tropical climate offers warm temperatures throughout the year,
    making it a popular destination for tourists.
    Cuba's history is deeply intertwined with Spanish colonization, which began in the 15th
    century. The island gained independence in 1902, but its political landscape has been
    marked by significant events, most notably the Cuban Revolution led by Fidel Castro in
    1959. The revolution transformed Cuba into a socialist state, with a one-party political
    system led by the Communist Party of Cuba. Cuba has a unique economic system,
    combining socialist principles with limited market-oriented activities. The state plays a
    central role in the economy, which has faced challenges, including the U.S. embargo and
    the collapse of the Soviet Union. Despite these challenges, Cuba has maintained strengths
    in sectors like healthcare, education, and biotechnology. The Cuban Missile Crisis, also
    known as the October Crisis in Cuba, or the Caribbean Crisis was a 13-day confrontation
    between the governments of the United States and the Soviet Union, when American
    deployments of nuclear missiles in Italy and Turkey were matched by Soviet deployments
    of nuclear missiles in Cuba. The crisis lasted from 16 to 28 October 1962. The
    confrontation is widely considered the closest the Cold War came to escalating into full-
    scale nuclear war
