I really hate to push a trend idea forward, but when I saw the Castro thread this is what jumped into my mind. Because while there have been many tinpot dictators in many banana republics, not many have had the caliber of insanity and depravity marked by the reign of Trujillo. So my question is, what would the Dominican Republic be like if Trujillo had never taken power, having Trujillo die at an early age.
