Sorry for the delay, Kata and I ended up accidentally making this one 3x longer than our normal videos, and it took 3x as long to make.
The story of the banana republics, the United Fruit company, or the CIA intervention of the 40s and 50s are virtually impossible stories to tell correctly. They are simply too big and complicated. Mixing them together as I've done here means leaving out a vast majority of the story. A thousand unmentioned thoughts. I think, maybe, with around 3 hours or so you could start to get a basic handle on it, but I've done my best with twenty minutes. Hopefully it helps to at least start painting the picture.
As always, thanks for watching, everyone. We truly appreciate you.
