Answer to Question 1

One of the most common causes of regime change from democracy to non-democracy is a military coup, which occurs when elements in a country's armed forces overthrow a democratically elected civilian government and take control. Most military coups target non-democratic rulers rather than democratic regimes. However, coups against democratic regimes continue to occur. For example, in Thailand, the military overthrew democratically elected Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra in 2006.

Answer to Question 2

False
