Understudied part of the USSR's history. Just imagine a red Poland with the USSR able to lend material support to the German revolutionaries of the early 20s. Lenin is not too stressed, doesn't have strokes. The revolution just keeps chugging west and England is sunk into the sea for being too limey.
my favorite head scenerio is the britian and the u.s. basically become fascist and the "bad guys" of alt-WW2. the u.s. gets engulfed in a civil war halfway through the war, england gets sunk by the combined european red forces. the pacific theater would be more iffy depends on how the hypothetical u.s. civil war goes and who are the factions in it.
the resulting communism would also look much different than the tradition siege socialism, as the outward oppresive presence probably wouldn't have been as bad
