Nations are made of people. I don’t see why this is a necessary distinction.

It is because nations are more than individuals, they are made up of groups of people, histories, traditions, culture, socioeconomic systems of governance, not just individual population units. I don't think there is much use in analyzing things based on an individual case by case basis. Individuals don't matter in the grand scheme of things, revolutions don't spring up because all of a sudden everyone decides to have a revolution right?

Might is extremely difficult to quantify.

According to muh wikipedia the Russian Empire was the third largest empire in modern history. The angloids were scared of them invading India.

Moreover, it’s not a nation’s might or lack thereof that primarily leads to revolution, it’s the conditions of the people.

Idk whether this is the primary reason but it certainly plays a part. Problem is that there are many countries around the world where the populations live in worsening miserable slavery, however there have been no revolutions post 2000 save for Nepal. However, what points of hope do you see from the third world?
