Hello everyone,

With the recent death of Fidel Castro, we have noticed a decided uptick in questions related to him, the Cuban Revolution, and Cuba in general. As we have done a few times in the past for topics that have arrived suddenly, and caused a high number of questions, we decided that creating a Megathread to "corral" them all into one place would be useful to allow people interested in the topic a one-stop thread for it.

As with previous Megathreads, keep in mind that like an AMA, top level posts should be questions in their own right. However, we do not have a dedicated panel, so anyone can answer the questions, as long as that answer meets our standards of course! Do be particularly mindful of the rules against discussing current events, and basing answers on opinion/impressions.

Thank you!

edit: A quick request for patience in getting replies here today, folks! It's Thanksgiving weekend in the USA, and as a result, many of the flairs and other expert users are offline or otherwise incapacitated by tryptophan today. They'll be back! :)
