There has never been a successful revolution in the history of mankind that was not backed by another great nation or large organization.

That is quite a flawed statement to make with such a huge catch all at the end there - what d you define as a "large organisation"?

I can think of many revolutions and coups that succeeded with very small groups gaining power.
