Augusto César Sandino
Hi.
I wanted to know something: What's Augusto César Sandino's ties to the Sandinistas? I know in Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker, Sandino was apparently the namesake for the Sandinistas, but I'm not sure if it's verifiable or not (especially when Peace Walker unfortunately sings praises for both the Sandinistas and Che Guevara), and there's nothing about him on here. Pokeria1 (talk) 16:34, 22 August 2016 (EDT)
- Sandino had led forces in the Constitutionalist War loyal to the elected government against Chamorro's and then led the rebellion in the 1920s-30s against the American occupation of Nicaragua that followed. After the US withdrew, was assassinated by forces loyal to Somoza. He got a reputation after his death as a national hero; somebody who fought for liberty and independence against dictatorship and US imperialism. When the Sandinistas were formed, they named themselves after him as a way to co-opt his image. But they don't have any direct ties to Sandino, who died about 30 years before they were founded.--Whizkid (talk) 22:57, 22 August 2016 (EDT)
