Rosemaria de Castro Bellón (born Rosemaria de Castro Prado; 30 January 1932 – 9 April 2003) was a Trenadian journalist, political scientist and politician who served as the 35th and 37th president of Trenado, from 1973 to 1980 and from 1989 to 1992. Rosemaria was the first ever female president to be elected in the country, and the first woman to be elected head of state in South America. Due to her wide political popularity, diplomatic abilities and the economic advancements made by the government during her three administrations, she is often considered one of the most influential Trenadians of all time and one of the greatest presidents of the country's history.
Born on 30 January 1932, in Lagunas, Rosemaria dedicated her youth and adulthood to journalism, being part of the opposition against the Social Conservatives' administrations between 1947 and 1952. Her political opinions were widely spread through the Independentes journal, during the 1950's. She eventually joined the Libertarian party in 1956, the same year she got married to Josep Douglas Bellón. Once joining political activities, she was elected congresswoman in the 1960 elections, replaced Augusto Ferreyra as the party leader between 1965 and 1970, and would be elected head of state in October 1972.
