Too much salad fixin's flying around. I need a proper frame of reference, not word salads:
● On 11 September 1973, Pinochet seized power in Chile in a coup d'état, with the support of the US that toppled Allende's democratically elected left-wing Unidad Popular government and ended civilian rule.
● In December 1974, the ruling military junta appointed Pinochet Supreme Head of the nation by joint decree, although without the support of one of the coup's instigators, Air Force General Gustavo Leigh.
● After his rise to power, Pinochet persecuted leftists, socialists, and political critics, resulting in the executions of 1,200 to 3,200 people, the internment of as many as 80,000 people, and the torture of tens of thousands. According to the Chilean government, the number of executions and forced disappearances was 3,095.
● Operation Condor, a U.S.-supported terror operation focusing on South America, was founded at the behest of the Pinochet regime in late November 1975, his 60th birthday.

Both consist of many indigenous yribes and their cultures, "living in poverty", by the West's standards. Idk. Just different. The wealth of raw materials.
According to the United Nations, more than 5 000 different peoples, with a population of over 370 million people, divided between 70 countries on five continents, fall under the category of “indigenous peoples” (UNIPP, 2012). These peoples are quite diverse. Each has their own culture, language, history, worldview, and productive, food, and medicinal systems. Nevertheless, they share a series of common characteristics and problems, which are the basis for their struggles and for the international policies that concern them.
