El Salvador did not have sufficient industrial technology for making powerful arms to fight against the communist threat or against the guerrilla. Cuba also helped the guerrilla by training people for fighting against the government, etc. USA did not want the communism to spread in Latin America, and El Salvador was in danger, according to the American intelligence. So the United States did get involved in the war, and Cuba did it too. The war lasted 12 years, from 1980 until 1992, so as you can imagine, there is a lot of information about this war on the Internet, and you will not have problems for finding tons of documents about it. But remember that every person saw the war from a different point of view. Some people think the guerrilla was right, and some other people think that the government was right. So you could find biased documents, and probably even lies about what really happened. Read from a lot of information sources, and don't believe 100% the first thing that you read.
