Since Maduro took power in 2013, Venezuela has experienced a major economic downturn. Gangs of impoverished children roam the capital, and women voluntarily sterilise themselves for want of contraceptives.
Opposition groups accuse Chavez of using armed biker gangs to intimidate and harass them. They claim that under controversial new reforms, these gangs could become an official arm of government.
As Maduro declares a state of emergency in Venezuela, accusing the US of plotting to subvert his rule, we revisit the US-supported coup that saw Chavez briefly ousted and relations between the two nations sour.
Venezuela is bitterly divided - torn between those who support Chavez and those who oppose him. It has become so polarized, it's paralysed.
