Salvador Allende (Valparaíso, 1908- Santiago de Chile, 1973) was the president of Chile since 1970 until the Coup of State led by the general Augusto Pinochet on the 11 of September 1973. He died in the La Moneda Palace when it was bombed by the participants in the coup d’état.  This Coup d’état was followed by a 17-year-old dictatorship characterized by the constant violation of Human Rights.
