Fun fact: the Cuban Missile Crisis almost sparked another World War, which would result in America becoming a different country than it is today. Heck, we wouldn't even exist.

Anyways, here are some facts of the Cuban Missile Crisis:
-Fidel Castro assumes power in Cuba
-Cuba aligns with the Soviet Union
-US terminates diplomatic relations with Cuba
-Bay of Pigs invasion fails resulting in a bad image of President JFK.
-Missile Sites were photographed in Cuba, and the crisis ends with US and the Soviet Union making a pact to remove missile bases in Turkey and Cuba.
