The king was on vacation when his son called: I'm on the stage! I was about to take revenge, only to find that the money was gone. Why?

Lin wrote a poem in "Crying": "There is no Lord in Fang Fei's eyes. If the coup dies, it will be chilling."

Coup refers to the sudden change of state power caused by some people in the ruling group by military or political means.

Many people think that whenever there is a coup, there will be bloodshed. Even Li Shimin, who initiated the rule of Zhenguan and was known as a famous monarch through the ages, seized the throne through a coup and paid a lot of lives.

However, what people didn't expect was that a coup in a country was an exception. There was no loss at all in this coup, and no one was killed, so that the person who launched the coup achieved his goal!

In a poor country with only money left, a coup in the 1990s was wonderful.

This happened in this country called Qatar, with a population of 2.57 million and a land area of 1 152 1 square kilometer. It is an Arab country in southwest Asia, located in the east of Arabian Peninsula.

Most of the territory of this country is surrounded by the Persian Gulf. Qatar has a high human development index, and its citizens are extremely rich, but its industry and manufacturing industry are underdeveloped. Qatar hosted the 2006 Doha Asian Games and the 20 1 1 Asian Cup, and Qatar also won the right to host the 22nd World Cup in 2022.

In people's minds, Qatar is a country rich in oil. How rich is it? Qatar's per capita GDP ranks first in the world, and there are almost no poor people there.

There is a saying that can aptly describe the superior living standard of Qataris: money is the only thing left.

However, this article is not about the wealth of Qatar, but about the bloodless coup in Qatar in the 1990s. This once serious coup sounds wonderful and funny.

When the old emperor was on holiday abroad, his son called to tell him that his coup was successful.

First of all, Qatar is an absolute monarchy emirate. That is to say, in Qatar, the Sheikh is their king, and they call him the Emir.

1995, Khalifa, then Emir of Qatar, went to Switzerland for a holiday. Before he left, he left everything in the country to his son Hamad.

Everything seems normal, and Khalifa is very happy abroad. But not long after, his son Hadma suddenly called him and told him that he was on the stage.

In other words, Hadamard took advantage of Khalifa's absence to launch a coup to oust his father and replace him.

Moreover, this coup turned out to be an easy success, extremely fast, very smooth, even without any obstacles and no bloodshed, which made Khalifa feel incredible.

The coup has been planned for a long time, and the three good wives are behind it.

In fact, this coup seems very simple, but in fact Hadma has made great efforts to launch this coup, and has been preparing since very early.

It should be mentioned here that Qatar is a polygamous country, especially those members of the royal family. It is common for a man to have several wives. Hadma's success in this coup owes a lot to his three wives.

Hadma studied in Britain in her early years, and her experience abroad made Hadma have great ambitions. For the rapid development of the country, he believes that a thorough reform is necessary. He has always dreamed of building his motherland into a modern country like Britain through his own efforts.

The first step is to gain enough strength. Therefore, after returning to China, Hadamard longed to take power and reform the country.

1972, Hadma served as Commander-in-Chief of Qatar Armed Forces. Later, in order to further consolidate his position, he married a relative's daughter, which became the first step for him to seize power.

By 1977, Hadma became the Crown Prince and Minister of National Defense, and his power was further expanded. This also reflects that his father actually intends to put him in power. It can be seen from the consistent practice of the old king that he is gradually training Hadma to be the next Emir, but the inaction of the old king makes Hadma very anxious and wants to take the position as soon as possible. It was also in this year that Hadma met his second wife, Moza.

Moza is a college student. She is not only knowledgeable and clever, but more importantly, she supports Hadma's great cause of seizing power and gives him a lot of advice.

Later, with Moza's support, Hadma married the daughter of another relative, further consolidating her power.

When the time was ripe, the old king went out to travel and the prince immediately launched a coup.

By 1992, Hadma had served as the chairman of the State Supreme Planning Commission and the commander-in-chief of the armed forces at the same time, which can be said to have firmly grasped the military and political power. It can be said that Hadma has mastered the power to launch a coup at this time, but he decided to seize the opportunity and then make a move.

However, at that time, Khalifa did not realize this, but also leisurely traveled to various countries and enjoyed life.

Finally, 1995, Hadma quietly staged a coup with the support of his family during his father Khalifa's trip abroad.

At that time, Khalifa was resting in a hotel in Zurich. After learning that his son had usurped power, he naturally flew into a rage, but Hamad calmly called his father. He almost told his father in the calmest tone: "I want you to see Qatar, a rich country in Qiang Bing, in your lifetime"!

The old king got angry and broke off his father-son relationship. He tried to retaliate, but found that he had no money.

After answering the phone, the old king was naturally unwilling to quit politics, so he announced that he would not recognize the legitimacy of the coup and break with Hamad. From then on, the old king decided to rely on his old minister to make a comeback. After all, he still has tens of billions of dollars in his hand.

However, the young Hamad used a very modern means to stop his father from fighting back. When the old king opened an account, he found that all his funds were frozen. If he has no money, what can he do to make a revolution?

Moreover, in order to prevent his father from turning over, Hamad also banned him from entering the country, which made Khalifa feel at a loss. It was not until nine years after this incident that Hamad felt that his father was no threat to him and was allowed to return to Qatar.

summary

During his tenure, Hamad did make great efforts to govern. He used Qatar's rich oil and gas resources to greatly improve the country's industrial level and modernization level. In just ten years, he built Qatar into the world's largest exporter of liquefied natural gas, and Qatar also became one of the countries with the highest per capita GDP in the world. In just 18 years, Qatar's international status has greatly improved.

Although the modern version of the Xuanwumen Revolution was based on an illegal coup, Hamad also served the country and the people. In fact, his starting point is still very good, and his achievements are obvious to all in the Middle East. This foreign Li Shimin enjoys a high reputation at home and abroad.

In 20 13, Hamad Zen was located in his son Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, becoming the first monarch in Arab countries. Such a move also proves that he is not a greedy person.

I have to say that Hadma, as a politician, is still very resourceful. I don't know what Khalifa, as a father, thinks of his clever son.
