Belisario Porras
Belisario Porras was a prominent Panamanian politician and military leader who served as the President of Panama during three non-consecutive terms in the early 20th century. His presidency was marked by significant developments in the nation's infrastructure, but also by his administration's oppressive measures towards indigenous communities, particularly the Guna people, leading to the notable Revolución Dule in 1925.
