    Not sure if this can be compared to a revolution against local rulers. Wasn’t the main reason for the success of many of the initial revolutions against colonial rulers that keeping the colonies became to expensive? The colonies were mostly business ventures for the colonial powers after all.

    How can we take a lesson from this for local revolutions?

      I would have thought any successful revolution would need for the state to be wobbling in some fashion.
