As a citizen of a country that was invaded and taken apart multiple times in the last 200 years(Poland) - no, that's a very noble idea, but in practice that doesn't always work. Poland has survived in the shape that it is mostly because people were able to move and cultivate the Polish language, culture and heritage elsewhere temporarily. We even had a government-in-exile for a while in London, at the time when Poland was literally wiped off the map of Europe and just didn't exist any more, except in peoples' minds. I can't imagine my country would exist at all if other countries had your approach - just piss off and if you want to exist then go and fight. Sometimes this requires time, not grabbing swords and fighting.
