In Southeast Asia, militaries have been prominent in Myanmar and Thailand, and the two countries have experienced their fair share of coups. The latest putsch occurred on February 1, 2021 in Myanmar. With Myanmar\u2019s military having had a long and close relationship with Thailand\u2019s armed forces, and both countries\u2019 militaries prone to staging coups, one wonders to what extent Myanmar\u2019s 2021 putsch can be explained in the context of the history of coups in mainland Southeast Asia. Does Myanmar follow the Thai model?"}
