The Iranian Tudeh Party is one of the strongest political parties in the world, having held almost incontestably the leadership of the Iranian Republic since 1944 and being probably the most globally influential political party next to the CPSU.

So your challenge is to mess that up, and unseat the world's most securely seated political party.

Not sure....though I'm sure Ataturk sending all the Turkish communists to (then)-Persia didn't help matters any.

(in OTL, he sent them to the USSR, or tried to)

Hm, while its true there were quite a few Turks involved in the movement, it doesn't detract from the fact that the movement was very popular domestically. Case in point, most non-Tudeh revolutionaries exiled themselves to Iraq, or even British India.
