Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Sandinistas were the members of the Sandinista National Liberation Front. It was a Nicaraguan group that overthrew President Anastasio Somoza Debayle in 1979. It ended the 46-year dictatorship of the Somoza family. The sandinistas were ruling Nicaragua from 1979. The FSLN was founded in 1962 by Carlos Fonseca Amador, Silvio Mayorga, and Tomas Borge Matinez as an organization committed to socialism.
