Junta is a board game designed by Vincent Tsao originally published by Creative Wargames Workshop in 1978, and later published by West End Games. Players compete as the corrupt power elite families of a fictional parody of a stereotypical Banana republic (specificially Republica de los Bananas) trying to get as much money into their Swiss bank account before the foreign aid money runs out. Although the act of declaring a coup encompasses the majority of the game's equipment, rules, and playtime, it is tangential to the game's goal.
Junta is a fictional antihero in the Marvel Comics universe. The character was created by Christopher Priest and Dan Fraga in Black Panther (3rd series) #59.

Some territories maintained their juntas even after being brought under the imperial Austrian branch of the dynasty.
