17. How many modern RECOGNISED governments...
...owe their existence to the violent (or at least highly irritated) overthrow of a pre-existing legitimate regime.

Only about half of Europe; Virtually all of the Americas South of The Great Lakes; Largish chunks of SE Asia; China itself; Much of Africa.


Really there's not many places in the world where terrorism (or like activity) did not figure in the instalation of a government subsequently recognised by the international community.
