Resumo: Africa is today the main geographical area of terrorism as well as of coups d’etat. Since 2010, about 40 coups d’etat have been carried out in Africa, in parallel with an evident regression of democracy. In 2022, according to the Report on Democracy Index elaborated by The Economist Intelligence Unit, more than 35% of all countries in the world were considered authoritarian regimes, and only 14.4% were full democracies (EIU, 2022). Among the 10 worst countries in terms of democracy, four were African and six Asian. Among the first 40 most democratic countries of the world just two are African countries: Botswana and Cape Verde.
