Looking at the Wikipedia for it, that number comes from a Washington Post country guide with absolutely no context or source to back it up. So I’m not confident that’s correct. The Wikipedia article itself details less than 30 coups. They have one every few years sure, but it’s not like every 9 months for 160 years someone was trying to overgrow the government.
Jesus Christ. That country fucking loves coups.
This is the first one since 1984 however. Makes it much more signifcant than it might sound after hearing that number.
2019?
Hard to say. Im not well informed enough to judge whether that did classify as a coup.
