Okay, so what if the Bolsheviks won the Russian Civil War, but the Red Guard lost the Finnish Civil War?

Finland and Russia's histories would both be very different if the other side won their respective civil war, but how would they be different? Would there be a much larger Red Scare in Europe if the Bolsheviks won the Russian Civil War? Would white Finland be a monarchy or a republic? What would happen to the Tsar (I know it's one of history's funny moments, when after the military coup, Finland, a virulently anti-monarchist socialist state, gave the former Tsar Nicholas II and his family refuge just because it would piss off Russia)? What else would happen?

OOC: Yes, the Tsar and his family survive TTL. I just thought that, even though it isn't very realistic, the "Finland giving the former Tsar refuge" thing would be kind of fun and add a bit more situational irony to the scenario.
