Another interesting point is Switzerland after 1848.

They had a very small-scale civil war which made them rethink their political structure.

Or the Austrian empire in 1866, which lost a major war against Prussia and was forced to reform itself into a dual Austro-Hungarian monarchy. Which was somewhat more competitive and liberal than its predecessor and if it avoided other wars, it might in some form survive until today.
