  How was democracy restored in Chile? Or How did Pinochet's military dictatorship come to an end? Explain.                

Answer:

                  General Augusto Pinochet's military dictatorship came to an end after he decided to hold a referendum in 1988. He thought that people would vote for him. But the people of Chile voted against him. Political freedom was restored and finally General Bachelet's daughter, Michelle Bachelet was elected President of Chile in 2006. The elected government that came to power ordered inquires into ' Pinochet's rule, which showed that his government was not only brutal but also very corrupt.
