Was there ever a nation to come from fascism without a war or a revolution?

What happened was definitely revolutionary

It wasn't as violent as some others, but it was still revolution

What happened where?

Since when are elections revolutions? If everything is a revolution nothing is. If you define a revolution as a change of regime then all changes of regime are revolutions, it's a useless, entirely tautological definition.

The OP is asking if fascist regimes have been reverted "without a war or a revolution", presumably meaning without violent conflict.

This is a thing. It has happened multiple times, no matter how low of a bar for violence you set in place.
