. His successors, including Jose Antonio Paez, Antonio Guzman Blanco, or Juan Vincente Gomez followed in his footsteps towards personalised power. ; they were more preoccupied with personal aggrandisement than building strong institutions in the the nascent Venezuelan state. ; Personalised power, elitism and authoritarianism continued to dominate the Venezuelan political arena ; His only focus should be on building alliances |
