Military '''fiat''' is a [[process]] whereby a [[decision]] is made and enforced by [[military]] means without the participation of other [[political]] elements. The [[Latin]] term fiat, translated as "let it be," suggests the [[autocratic]] attitude ascribed to such a process. For example, many coups involve the imposition of a new government by military fiat.[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Military_fiat]
