An oligarchy is a government where the power is centered among a small number of people. To gain a place in this type of government requires that either by wealth or family ties one can generate support among the members and join the oligarchy. Generally speaking, unless one has some kind of powerful relation to members of the ruling oligarchy such such as those just mentioned, it would be extremely difficult to become a member of the oligarchical centers of power.
If a number of "outsiders" of the oligarchy desire to become part of such a governmental scheme, or in fact displace the current oligarchy with a new one, then a revolution would be the way to do this.
