The Hungarian Soviet Republic was the first European communist nation since the October Revolution in Russia. All in all, the communist government of Bela Kun lasted about four months before the Romanians invaded and disassembled it.

IIRC, the Russians pledged support for Kun's government, but were unable to reach Hungary in time due to military reversals in the Ukraine. Is there any way the Soviets would be able to reach Budapest in time and prop up the Hungarian Communist Party? What would this mean for WWII and the rest of history?
