It has happened IRL... how do you think power imbalances happen? Rules set up by fallible people, create fallible systems, even if a system is better, does not mean it will not become worse without diligence, why do you think that incumbents are so hard to unseat outside scandal in the US? Because people hate change, what works today doesn't work tomorrow, we know that, but it doesn't mean we rashly act upon it without knowing about it, and people just don't want to know about politics.

At a certain point a broken political system stays broken because it lacks anyone who knows how it was intended to be run, either due to overcomplication or oversimplification, and fixing it is only simple if the system inherently has a tyrannical bent or is reformatted through rebellion, reformation and/or new compromise, which is never simple due to outside/internal forces of greed, corruption, or anywhere else uninterested in change.
