Peru's 1960 Military Dictatorship:

Before the recession, elections held fraud and the military replaced the president with another, resulting in a military regime to start. When the recession in the mid-1960s occurred, and inflation following suit, the people still managed to thrive and prosper. The new president chosen by the military took interest in foreign trade, which resulted in a fish revolving economy. The recession turned this all around, and now the economy was failing. Lacking the support of the nation, they proceeded to go through military reforms, though they were all unsuccessful. When the military took over completely, not many people took mind until many setbacks on freedom of speech took place and the current president was arrested and exiled. Soon after, many rebellions and protest littered the streets. 
The personal qualities of the leaders in Peru are reins of power to back them up, along with most of them having the assistance of the military, being in them for some time before they became president. The only exception had been kicked out by the military, only to be elected again once the military died down in the 1980s.
