When you killed everyone in a coup

I didn‘t kill „everybody“. I killed the king, his family and his guards and maybe his ministers or generals

you are by definition a new military

No, I am a member of one of many militias

all your friends who are running around with rifles trying to do a coup are in it for power

Not all of them, but I understand what you mean

for everyone bright eyed idealist who will immediately relinquish his absolute authority that he just won by fighting a civil war, there will be 10 people who fought in civil war to get this absolute authority.

Yes. Thats how war works.

both technologies and situations are different now

Exactly

Not how civil wars work unfortunately

No, I am a member of one of many militias

Which makes you a part of the military power of the new rule. So yeah.

Yes. Thats how war works.

Yes. That's my point actually.

Exactly

Ok, but that's worse. You do get how that's worse, right?
