Alejandro M. Sinibaldi
Alejandro Manuel Sinibaldi Castro (1825–1896) was acting President of Guatemala from April 2, 1885, to April 5, 1885. Biography Of partial Italian descent, Sinibaldi Castro was a businessman who was "First Designate to the Presidency", the equivalent of Vice-President, during the presidency of Justo Rufino Barrios. When Barrios was killed on April 2, 1885, in El Salvador, Sinibaldi Castro became acting president. However, given that Sinibaldi Castro had no political connections and was not in the military, he was pressured to resign within days of taking over. His successor was General Manuel Lisandro Barillas, who served as acting president, and was eventually elected as Constitutional President.

He was known for his liberal reforms and his attempts to reunite Central America.

Rise to power In 1867, revolt broke out in western Guatemala, which many residents wished to return to its former status of an independent state as Los Altos.

In July 1871, Barrios, together with other generals and dissidents, issued the "Plan for the Fatherland" proposing to overthrow Guatemala's long entrenched ''Conservadora'' (conservative) administration; soon after, they succeeded in doing so, and General G ...
