| Info | Rafael Julio del Rosario Acosta García (23 May 1872 – 6 July 1954) served as President of Costa Rica from 1920 to 1924.
He was born in San Ramón, Alajuela, to Don Juan Vicente Acosta and Doña Jesus García.
After a 1917 coup by the brothers Federico Tinoco and Joaquín Tinoco, Acosta escaped to El Salvador, but led a counter-revolution, entering San José on 13 September 1919. He was elected president on 7 December.
In 1921 he nearly went to war with Panama over a border dispute, which ended with intervention (including the landing of troops) by the United States.
