Ardanwen has a point, your tropico island has some history before 1950, you pick how your dictator came to power in T1, which has to mean their were leaders before. CoconutKid, with your line of thinking, then the tropico palace from T1 also wouldnt have a logical connection to the game, because that definitely isnt a typical 1950's building either.

Your examples are from the 18th century. Is there a logical connection with the story line of the game?

An essay on church architecture is not needed to establish that a small island in the Caribbean which started from next to nothing for population and infrastructure in 1950 would be unlikely to have faux 18th century churches -- or even structures resembling them which might be recycled churches.

What may be needed is an essay on anachronisms.

First of all, not all Tropico Islands just 'started', some do have a longer history.
Second, what makes you believe that Caribbean churches constructed in the '50's would not resemble the traditional architectural styles?
How would a 1950 Caribbean church look like in your book?
