View submission: Are there examples of oligarchic governments being removed peacefully?
What effect do you think the assassination of Luis Carrero Blanco had on the transition of power in spain? My understanding is that had he not been assassinated, Juan Carlos would not have gained power in anything more than name, and thus would have been unable to begin the transition.

My understanding mirrors yours, but I’m not an expert on Spanish political history, so I’ll leave the theorizing to people who are (especially in this subreddit).
