What's wrong with starting a revolt when you're still in the country? After all, there's no reason why revolts must start outside the country in question.  |

Actually, there is; a historical one: virtually no attempted revolt in a modernized country has ever succeeded without outside support, save for when the failure of the state took the form of negligence of the people and random bad stuff rather than deliberate oppression.
