    I mean usually the government doesn’t basically invite the rebels in, unless they are loyal to the old guy, and want him back in power.

      Yeah, it was less “rebels staging a coup and imposing a junta” and more “Napoleon returning from exile with ease, because the government never bothered to remove his loyalists from positions of authority.”
