"Political instability" entails a situation where a government or political system is unable to function effectively, leading to uncertainty and disruption. This instability can manifest in various forms, including frequent changes in leadership, civil unrest, or widespread protests against the government. Economic crises, corruption, and social divisions often contribute to political instability, affecting national security and public confidence. In extreme cases, it may lead to coups or conflicts, posing significant challenges to governance and stability within a nation.
