Castro's first attempt was unsuccessful when he tried to overthrow Batista. Instead of overthrowing Batista, Fidel went to prison for 15 years. Fidel Castro went back to Cuba to start another revolution. So, he fought along with Ernest "Che" Guevara. Batista became less and less popular with the people because he was using the Mafia and the US government to prop himself up.
Batista was a dictator that had no interest at all in the people of Cuba. Cuba was bogged in corruption and murder and poverty had become the playground of United states gangsters its biggest industry was gambling and prostitution to a US clientele. He was finally thrown out by Fidel Castro. We shall never know if he would have led Cuba into a better era as gangland connections in the US government has done whatever it could to keep the population of Cuba hungry and sick.
Castra at first tried legal methods to defeat Batista and they did not work. Then he and his brother Raul tried other tactics. They were put in jail after their assault on the Moncada barracks. The trial only made Fidel a hero to the people.

Castro claimed Batista was tyrannical and corrupt. The Cuba Revolution began in July of 1953. Batista was overthrown on January 1, 1959.
They did not want a Communist country less than 100 miles from Florida. At that time, Cuba was also developing a lot of nuclear weapons.
