He served in a variety of governmental posts before leaving Cuba and turning his attentions to South America. His intentions there were to start more communist revolutions. He was captured in Bolivia in 1967 by the Bolivian army and the CIA and then executed.
Since this time he has become an icon for socialist revolutionary movements all over the world. Due to his communist connections, his martyr-like status and the fact that he is used to symbolise rebellion and revolution, would ensure his unpopularity with a lot of people.
This is just a very brief description of him, there is a lot more.
