Coup d'état

The sudden and illegal overthrowing of a government or leader, and having it replaced with a different leader or government, or often just putting the military in control.

Coups usually occur in poor, third world countries. Since 1990 there has been only two coups outside of what could be called the third world: The failed 1991 attempt to restore the dying Soviet Union, and the successful 2000 US presidential election FRAUD which prevented Al Gore from becoming Bill Clinton's successor, instead George W. Bush became the American dictator for eight terrible years.
