So let's say Stalin goes nuts again and in May 1945 sends his forces to boot the Allies out of western Germany. The resultant war ends in the latter part of the year with the Americans using atomic weapons to force a capitulation, after Stalin is overthrown. As a result, the Soviet Union soon collapses 1991 style.
So, with this having happened, what happens instead of the Cold War? Where does America go? Where does Europe go? Does China not go communist and so perhaps rise up far faster to fill the great power void? Or does Europe do it, or maybe India, or maybe the U.S. is just totally hegemonic from now on?
