Friendly Dictators Crossword Puzzle
Latin America
The crossword puzzle below contains the names of some of the worst characters
in the history of Latin America. What they all have in common -- besides a
record of abusing their power -- is some degree of support from United States
governments. Almost half of the subjects chosen for the 1990 Friendly Dictators
card set were from the Latin America and Caribbean region. The rest of the world has its own puzzle.
To complete the puzzle, match the dictator to the country, using only surnames.
All of the dictators mentioned here can be found on the Friendly Dictators web site.
