What if the Bolsheviks are unable to assert control over the former Russian Empire beyond what would be the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic? A PoD might be where the Transcaucasian Democratic Federative Republic, composing of Armenia, Georgia and Azerbaijan, remained intact. Their combined military forces are able to defeat the Red Army as well as keeping it occupied enough for other former Russian territories assert or maintain their independence. Would the Red Army be able to regroup and reconquer these territories or would the Bolsheviks and the Communist movement collapse?
