Coup

Japanese: クーデタ
Coup
Also known as a coup d'état. An illegal transfer of power by sudden military force. Unlike a revolution, it is usually a power struggle within the same ruling class, and often ends with a change in the person in charge of government. In modern times, it is particularly common in countries where the military forms the political ruling class.

Japanese:
クーデターとも。武力によって権力を急襲して一挙に転覆させる非合法的政権移動。革命とは違い,通常同一支配層内部での権力闘争で,政権担当者の交替にとどまることが多い。現代はとりわけ軍人が政治的支配層を形成している国に多い。
