The Country of Cuba was a rich affluent country after WW II, but there was a large gap between the educated and un-educated which caused a large gap in the income levels of the country.
The un-educated where easily lead by the communist movement promising better pay and housing. By 1952 there was upheaval and in 1959 the government was taken over by the communist dictator Fidel Castro.
The Country was still rich with produce, and education was free to all Cuban's (as it is in the United States) but the people had less.
So yes Cuba is a rich country put the people are very poor and oppressed.
I hope this helps
