Kaiser Wilhelm II was known to have been against capitalism and Imperialism, common traits among communists. If the Central powers had won the war, what are the chances of Germany going communist.
Or a second thought, instead of a Russian Revolution in WW1, how about a German revolution of the same variety.
I don't know about Kaiser Wilhelm's stance towards capitalist, but there needs to be a slight clarification on his stance towards imperialism. The German Reich was not imperialist in the traditional stance; ie, gobbling up chunks of Africa and Asia just so they can paint as much gray as possible on their maps. They wanted influence in Europe; a primarily European empire. They would
much rather control the Baltics, Poland, etc, than a chunk of Africa. The statements you hear about imperialism is only against the traditional kind.
There won't be a whole lot of unemployed former soldiers. They'd still be employed in the military, I can definately see some occupation duties in the Balkans, Alsace-Lorraine, the lowlands, and Eastern Europe, plus Germany will likely demand some sort of war reparations from the allies.
France is far more likely to go red in this situation that Germany.
Agreed. IIRC, there was a very strong red movement in France at the time as it was. With the destabilizing influence of the loss of the war, unemployed soldiers (see above), and industry damaged even more than OTL, the Communist movement is going to be a hell of a lot stronger.
This is, of course, assuming a war more or less like OTL, and not a successful Schlieffen Plan or something bringing about a quick victory.
