I think I would want to be Di Ravello. Looking at the other antagonists, you notice a trend: they are well and truly hated by everyone. Most of Pandak Panay's military hates him, his colonels are either traitors or on drugs and suffering, not to mention the fact even the U.S. does (and not even for the oil, they had no idea of the vast oil reserves). Oscar Espinosa commands a decent amount of respect by telling people he's saving them, when he's doing the opposite in reality, but the existence of El Abismo and the ability of the AoC to sway people so quickly shows it's all a facade, he doesn't have much real power. Hell, his top general turns against him (rightfully so, but still) at the end. But Di Ravello is different. He fought his way up through he ranks, he didn't just kill his dad (like the previous 2 mentioned). He earned the respect of nearly the entire country of Medici. While propaganda does have a role in Di Ravello's popularity, the people of Medici seem to get along fine. Dissidents are sent to work the mines, yes, but the majority of Medicians who obey seem to live pleasant lives. Besides the whole burning of the north, Di Ravello doesn't actually kill his own people just 'cause (nice), or force them to join the military. The people obey out of fear, yes, but I believe many simply live better lives under him, and they respect him. To me, the fact the Rebellion spread so quickly seems unrealistic, I honestly believe that it would be hard to convince people to turn against Di Ravello and go live in some decrypt ruin instead.
