Showing the real face
Or why you never hear it?
Pitiful squeaks in the background
Low bar. Just name 3 random countries from the global south and you’ll probably get it right.
Yeah, I’m not sure, but more than likely all of central and south America
Actually extremely low bar. I was checking the Wikipedia page and I was thinking that Liechtenstein could be safe, but I’m not not completely sure now.

There’s a lot of lesser known ones that aren’t even listed there. Australia, Italy, Russia, and Greece for example.
there are so many that not even wikipedia can keep up. lol

I seriously don’t know if it’s easier to do the opposite list.
Don’t even need to look outside the so called US. Just look at the Indigenous nations they destroyed.
I think the Iroquois Nation counts. They certainly had representative government that included the minority parties in decision making. It didn’t look like democracy because it wasn’t modeled after the Greeks or Romans. They’d never heard of them.
Chile, Iran, Nicaragua
illegally?
pretty sure it was legal according to their own laws…
pretty sure it was legal according to their own laws…
that would be nice
This is not c/196
Why did you title it rule?
Iran, Iraq, I think Brazil or Cuba
argentina, uruguay, Chile.
Chile, Indonesia, Brazil
Hawaii is probably #1. I don’t care that they were a monarchy
Banana-pire, Oil-pire, and Cigar-pire.
Australia, Indonesia, Bolivia, Chile
(It’s hard to know which criticisms were propaganda and which were legit, so I can’t pick many that I can call my “favourite”. I’m 100% confident in Australia, mostly in Bolivia, somewhat in Chile, doubtful of Indonesia).
As a Labor/Greens voter in Australia, I am still salty about this. They did a entire peaceful coup just to save their little enclave next to Alice spring
If it weren’t for the coup, Australia would be a super-power to rival China and the US combined.
Better yet, show the top 3 illegally elected governments they have overthrown.
