    South Korea is on its FIFTH version of the country because the US continually coups it whenever the existing people aren't doing exactly what they want. It's called the Fifth Republic for a fucking reason. It is an occupied vassal state entirely subservient to the USA and has been ever since the US genocided one fifth of the population of Korea (all of Korea). Keep in mind that being on your FIFTH republic is remarkable when the southern dictatorship was only first formed in 1948.

    The US military has also literally run korean children over with tanks, which is very funny given that this is fake propaganda levelled at another enemy of the US, but in the case of america it's actually fucking true.

        Ahh yes 6th. Working from memory in most of my responses and without checking I'm pretty bad at dates and numbers tbh. It's worse with african countries though I am one of the people that mixes up their histories all the time to my great shame. I don't even know why it happens, I don't do it with south american countries.

        The general point stands, the stability of their government is directly tied to whether or not they're doing what the americans want. And whenever things aren't going precisely as desired the coups happen incredibly easily. By design.

            Lol I can see that working.

            It's fucking weird though thinking about France being on their Fifth republic over a period since the 1700s and these 6 occurring in.... 60 years.

            It is impossible for any normal unpropagandised person to look at this scenario and not see something is up that's worth scrutinising.
