          The ruling is a milestone for the country: Brazil has had at least 15 coups and coup attempts with links to the military since the monarchy was overthrown in 1889, but this is the first time the leader of one was convicted.

          Bolsonaro was convicted of plotting a vast conspiracy that included plans to dissolve the Supreme Court and to assassinate his opponent, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, before he took office. Bolsonaro denied planning a coup but testified that he sought “ways within the Constitution” to remain in office.

          Bolsonaro’s lawyers are expected to request that he serve his time under house arrest because of his health problems. His conviction is likely to escalate the conflict between Brazil and the U.S. President Trump had tried to force Brazil to drop the case with steep tariffs — the highest he imposed on any country’s goods this year — and he has said that like him, Bolsonaro is being persecuted for trying to reverse a rigged election.

          After protesters torched Parliament, the Supreme Court and the homes of five former prime ministers, the army was the only institution left standing to negotiate. The fighting force commands respect within Nepal, but it has never held power on its own and is caught at the center of a difficult transition for the country. Whatever comes next, the power vacuum will most likely be filled through an agreement between the angry and inchoate youth movement and military leadership.
