I'm thinking you mean: coup d'état which is the sudden overthrow of a government, often through illegal means by a part of the state establishment — mostly replacing just the high-level figures. It is also an example of political engineering. It can be (although not necessarily) violent, but it is different from a revolution, which is staged by a larger group and radically changes the political system through unconstitutional means.
The term is [[French entity over another; e.g. an intelligence coup. By analogy, the term is also applied to corporations, etc; e.g. a boardroom coup.

A coup d'état (roughly "hit on the State" in French) is the sudden overthrow of a government (usually by force). They often happen to be by a military that doesn't agree with a country's leadership.
