Lebanon just did change governments.
It's not really possible in Switzerland, but it is in the cantons where most of the power is concentrated, or left up to referendums. Switzerland is probably the most democratic country in the world actually in terms of the influence of the people, showing that you don't need very interesting or competitive elections for democracy (although the Swiss model wouldn't work in many other places)
Interesting point though, could one argue that Massachusetts or Utah aren't really democratic?
