e/Crisis state

Information
has gloss	eng: A crisis state is a state under acute stress, where reigning institutions face serious contestation and are potentially unable to manage conflict and shocks. In other words, there is a danger of state collapse. This is not an absolute condition, but a condition at a given point of time, so a state can reach a crisis condition and recover from it, or can remain in crisis over relatively long periods of time, or a crisis state can unravel and collapse.
