    I thought the problem was France in this case.

    But again, what exactly is breaking? And what prevents a coup in the future blaming the existing government of corruption as well?

      The only way to prevent a coup is through national domestic tranquility coupled with unchallenged military supremacy. Since we have yet to see such a thing emerge on Earth, it’s governments are still subject to being violently overthrown, sometimes publicly, sometimes covertly.
