The Netherlands was the one of the ways Nazi Germany got into France. Do you now of the wall the French built, the Marginot line I believe it's called. This was a line of fortifications that was built in between France and Germany. The Germans got past this obstacle by using the same tatic they used in WWI, through what is considered the low countries. The Netherlands was apart of this. Another reason is because of Hitler's goal of world conquest.

Nigeria has witnessed transitions from democratic rule to military rule by force. Military force was justified in that the leaders sought to "maintain control" when democracy created a chaotic and dysfunctional society. Howver, it has always been disputed that military leaders have outstayed their welcome and utilized government resources even AFTER "stabilizing" the nation. Nigeria is overrun by corruption due largely in part to it's patron-client system, or clientalism, which refers to government positions in support for certain leaders. Military rule has largely played into that and had often times used violent forces to supress outbreaks and rebellions, or simply expressions of free speech that did not go over too well with the current government. A key military leader to know is Obasango, who later gave up his military status in order to allow a peaceful transition from military rule to democracy, the first ever in Nigerian history.
