These small nations have a high degree of 'social trust', which means that a lot of people are actually convinced that the government is looking out for their interests.
That level of trust can be quickly erroded.
It is impossible. They've enacted 10,000 treaties codifying all their preferences into law. In case of a nationalist takeover, you'd have to abrogate these treaties, and then the larger countries would strangle you.
I've watched the law be treated as a suggestion for quite some time now. The point I made about why you need a coalition, is the response to the innevitable 'strangling'.
The problem is that 4/5 of the American - as well as of the others except P&H - would be fighting for the enemy.
As you say, it depends on the purge.
Their ability to defraud their populations is decreasing, but not their ability to coerce. We'll be at civilization's end before they can be overthrown.
Your assessment is ridiculously black-pilled when it is much the opposite situation. World communism died within 2-3 years. Napolean's continental arrangement fell in weeks. Fabianism will suffer a similar fate.
