What is the best case scenario for communism with a POD after 1945? By that I mean, how many nations could realistically adopt marxism-leninism or at least some other form of socialism after 1945? Is a red US in the cards? Which european nations are?
This is not really a "Soviets win the Cold War" scenario perse, for the USSR doesn't have to be the worlds most powerfull (socialist) nation. It's more of a "What if Socialism won the Cold War".
How would culture develope in this world? What would the border be? How would the remaining capitalist nations react?
Bonus points if the USSR remains a powerfull and influential nation militarily and economically (doesn't have to be the top dog), and remains the "honoured homeland of the revolution".
Double bonus points if it's a positive scenario
(and it could definetly be one. I'm reffering to my post in the "North Korea is best Korea" scenario https://www.alternatehistory.com/forum/threads/ahc-north-korea-is-best-korea.487717/. And if I can make North Korea best Korea, you can certainly make this happen ).
