"Salvador Allende wanted the people to own Chile's corporations."

―Cluster #5

Salvador Isabelino del Sagrado Corazón de Jesús Allende Gossens (1908 – 1973) was a Chilean physician and politician who became the first Marxist to be elected President of Chile.

At the end of Allende's tenure as President, the Templars wanted to create a dependent working class in Chile, but Allende's popularity and the socialist government opposed this plan. The Templars organized a military coup to overthrow him and install a Templar-controlled military junta in Chile, with their puppet, general Augusto Pinochet, as the country's dictator. Masterminded by Henry Kissinger, the coup proved successful, and Allende, supposedly, committed suicide during the plot. ^{[citation needed]}
