It just occurred to me, unless I'm mistaken, rebels don't fight each other, no matter how different their causes. You might be able to make the case that in certain instances disparate groups would band together against a common foe, but that is just one of many possible scenarios (Let's put allied rebel factions on the wishlist for now.)
Essentially what would be nice to see is, if, in the case of a nation being torn apart by war sees the collapse of its central government, various factions carving out spheres of influence as they vie for control. Instead of having Communist Farmers, Reactionary Officers, Anarcho-Liberal Clerks, and Conservative Soldiers all fighting together against the player's troops and then working together to siege the province. As an aside, how is it determined which group actually captures the province? (Though I think this would only matter for the capital?)
