There was never a government at all without interference from superpowers.

Of course, but most governments are allowed to mostly be sovereign.

Sweden or Australia play ball on their own, no need for a coup here.

Lol, what? Australia is a US lackee more than anywhere else. And the CIA was definitely involved in the Whitlam sacking.

For real, the US committed a coup in Australia with Whitlam. They don't constrain the CIA to just poor countries.
