Chile in the two decades had a rather difficult phase with the Pinochet government.

Step-by-step explanation:

Pinochet was a military dictator who took over the then elected government rather forcefully and then imposed his own rule over the people there.

He introduced market reforms that did not help the people of the time.

Instead the market economy hurt Chile and the people started protesting his rule . Liberalization had come at the expense of the common people.

This was taken to the extreme and he was forced to hold a referendum in which he was ousted in favor of democratic rule.
