In Brand Cuba, Allan Little analyses some of the factors that have kept Cuba alive in the public imagination over such a long period.

Part two

Allan Little examines the period after the Cuban Revolution and how the new Cuba positioned itself on the world stage.

Full of heady, revolutionary zeal, Cuba attempted to bring it's military experience to Southern Africa, to help bring about a regime change.

The island's leaders also devised a unique approach to diplomacy through medical aid.

The post-revolution era saw the start of a five decade-long stand-off between Cuba and the United States.
