  2. My favorite aspect about African coups is that they pretty much follow the chain of command downwards: a general overthrows the civilian government who then gets overthrown by a colonel who in turn is overthrown by a captain, etc. Eventually, you end up with Ghana where a first sergeant came to power and stayed there for 30 years!
