Republic of the Suns: Inside Venezuela’s Military Cartel | Full Documentary

Twenty-five years ago, Venezuela was one of Latin America’s most promising democracies. With the world’s largest proven oil reserves, a thriving middle class, and functioning institutions, it seemed poised for greatness. Today, the country has collapsed — not merely into dysfunction, but into something far more disturbing: a state turned into a cartel. In this episode of Breach, we investigate how the regime of Nicolás Maduro transformed the country from oil boom to narco-state. We trace the roots of the crisis, examine how military elites repurposed government infrastructure to traffic cocaine and control human-smuggling networks, and explore the devastating consequences for Venezuela’s neighbors and the United States.
