The Coup D'Etat
The inability to unite and efficiently lead the country has put the rule of Target Ruler into question. An attempt to oust him/her from power has been sprung into motion by his/her spouse, Sophie Of Anhalt Zerbst, along with leading cabinet member Coup Leader, and is likely to succeed unless the attempt is thwarted using great force, at an even greater cost.

4789historical_info = flavor_rus.49.historical_info The coup orchestrated by Catherine 'the Great' against her husband, Emperor Peter III, was prompted by the waning support he had managed to erode among the nobility due to his eccentricities, military decisions, and implementation of unpopular policies. Catherine saw little option for self-preservation and felt forced to act accordingly.
