They are often the ones who started the revolt against the government in the first place. Revolutions of the government by the people occur when the people really don't like what the government is doing or not doing. They think the government is brutal and/or stealing from them or that the government is incompetent at providing or protecting what the peasants need.

Sometimes it is because they are dependent on the group that will become the government after the revolt for a very basic need, or are threatened by them and forced to cooperate.
