The correct answer is option 1: a sudden overthrow of a government illegally. A coup refers to the unlawful removal or takeover of a government by a group, often led by military forces or other powerful factions within the country. It is a swift and unexpected action that aims to seize control of the government, usually resulting in the installation of a new ruling power. Coup attempts often involve acts of violence and intimidation against the existing government and its officials. This option accurately describes the essence of a coup, highlighting the illegal nature of such actions. The other options are not accurate definitions of a coup.
