Communist Empire

Lets say that a Communist government has voted into power in Britian or France before 1940. How is up to you. The primary challenge is to have them maintain their overseas empires. How can we get this to happen?

To list it out better, how can we get UK or France to keep their colonies after becoming Communist?
 
That's not difficult at all. Simply have them declared "equal citizens" in the global workers state, whether it's true or not is another story. Communism was an excellent tool for imperialism historically, so I don't see why it wouldn't be here.

Marx actually had an essay or two on how colonies would come around to socialism. Basically, he thought they would follow the home countries' lead. India was his big example, IIRC.
