IOTL, Communism was able to spread and uproot governments around Asia, Latin America and Africa. Eastern Europe and Russia were unmentioned as their transition to Communism was due to the Red Army during WWII.
In many scenarios the strong spread of Communism has been played around with, with the result being the West coming under siege.
But I'd like to explore a scenario where, even when Communism spreads so far, it crumbles under the freedom that capitalism gives(where the US or the West does not attempt to spread them with military means but purely through diplomacy).
How far, if so, can Communism actually spread that still ensures the victory of the "First World"(USCAN, Western Europe)? Can they take over all of Africa? All of Asia? All of Latin America? Perhaps even some of the Scandinavian countries?
Interested in what answers may arise.

EDIT: POD is after 1939. WWII should still be as similar to OTL as much as possible.
