Considering Tukh is the Chiang Kai-Shek equivalent, who would his successor be? Maybe Alexei Kosygin could be the interim leader of Russia until 1978 while his daughter Svetlana (as Tukh didn't have any sons) would be the Chiang Ching-Kuo equivalent?

Have a lot of Europeans been fleeing there from the massive levels of badness?
More a case of the Afrikaner and Anglo population not departing on such a large basis but, yeah, there will have been some European immigration. Also non-South African soldiers who fought in the Civil War and decided to stay for one reason or another.
