With Amita taking control, she puts an end to traditions, but sheenslaves the men and women into working the poppy fields, and the children are conscripted into her army.Amita is potentially worse than Pagan Min, and her actions will likely result in another Kyrati civil war.
Picking Sabal As The Leader
With Amita out of the way, Sabal seizes control of Kyrat,establishing a theocracy and executing anyone who opposes him. Sabal rules the people of Kyrat using violent and extremist methods, claiming that any opposition to him is a crime against the Gods, promising to cleanse Kyrat with blood.

There isn’t an easy answer when it comes to siding with Amita or Sabal.Both characters become tyrants, forcing the people to live in fear and/or slavery.

If you do so, Ajay will be attacked by the rebels, who will become permanently hostile and attack him on sight.
