- Note
- "The Republic of Upper Volta was established on 11 December 1958 as a self-governing colony within the French Community, and on 5 August 1960 it gained full independence, with Maurice Yaméogo as president. After protests by students and labour union members, Yaméogo was deposed in the 1966 coup d´état, led by Sangoulé Lamizana, who became president. His rule coincided with the Sahel drought and famine, and facing problems from the country´s traditionally powerful trade unions he was deposed in the 1980 coup d´état, led by Saye Zerbo. Encountering resistance from trade unions again, Zerbo´s government was overthrown in the 1982 coup d´état, led by Jean-Baptiste Ouédraogo." - (en.wikipedia.org 29.01.2020)
