Pretending that the rest of Kiva didn't happen
The first major rebellion that the Dominion ever faced was the full scale revolt the citizens of Ryth partook in. This revolt, despite its large numbers, didn't last long in the face of the Dominion's forces. Most of Linvara's citizens believed after this that there would be no such force ever powerful enough to fight the Dominion on equal footing.

Such a force did eventually appear however. The rebellion announced their presence in the 396 year of the Dominion's rule, claiming that the council had a false claim to rule Linvara, and that no group should rightfully be in power for so long. They pointed to injustices caused by the Dominion's mining operations in Ryth and Solathrin, as well as some of the more under the table handlings of the Inquisition.

The Insurgency's largest base lies deep within Dokutsu, and its location is only known to a select few. Even most fellow members of the rebellion are led there blind by a guide. It is from this base that many of the groups guerilla tactics are created. It's also very difficult to even get into the Insurgency. Essentially, the rebellion finds you. You don't find the rebellion.

Opinion on the Insurgency is heavily mixed throughout the empire. Most citizens see no need for such a rebellion to even exist; things have been pretty good throughout the Dominion's rule after all. Areas like Ryth and Solathrin on the other hand, have huge pockets of support for the resistance, because of the difficulties in living imposed upon them by the Dominion.

For the most part, only those directly affected in some way by the Dominion or Inquisition find reason to back the Insurgency. The group's guerilla tactics and acts of terrorism have produced even more mixed feelings about the group however.

The current leader of the Insurgency is a Merfolk going by the name of Mica. Few have ever met the man, and some believe he doesn't even exist.
