Is it possible, with a PoD ideally after 1922 (the formation of the Soviet Union, though it can be as early as 1917 if the SU still eventually forms, or some similarly recognizable alternative), for the British Empire to remain the premier superpower of the Western world, and take the place of the United States as it's representative in the Cold War against the Soviet Union? Obviously this is quite a difficult scenario especially without avoiding the first world war - perhaps to make things slightly easier, it's the remaining Entente powers that together form a combined bloc strong enough to challenge the Soviets as the Americans did (though they do not necessarily need to win). Also feel free to screw America as much as necessary, though a tripolar world would certainly be interesting.
I'm personally not sure how this could be accomplished with a PoD after WW1 (obviously you need to hold the Empire together, but that on its own is incredibly difficult), but that's why I'm posting this. Maybe someone here with better knowledge of the period and more creativity could come up with something.
