A question that I've not seen addressed: The Sea Peoples showed up, raided, invaded, really successfully. Why didn't they stay? Why did they go back to wherever they came from? Isn't that what the Vikings were doing in Britain (also Normandy?) for a while before they decided to stay there?

Maybe they were just really aggressive tourists that kept breaking things by accident. It was all one big Mr. Bean-esque accident.
