Context: You are a dictator in a resource-rich country and your family starting from your grandfather to your father and now you have been ruling this country with an iron fist in front of a submissive population. A recent wave of democratic revolutions spread out in countries across your region and you start to hear rumors of protests breaking out in your country too. The foreign powers whose agenda is to remove you from power will look to take advantage of this and support the fight against you. Your army is strong enough to hold back the rebels but with time resources will run out and it will be tough for you to keep fighting at full strength.
You have been offered a way out through a political amnesty but in exchange, you must change your name and never come back again in this country leaving your legacy behind.
