No Marx

At present, I'm just working on ideas for this timeline. I'd appreciate suggestions. The POD is that Karl Marx dies in infancy. Simple POD, enormous, wide-ranging consequences.

Among some of the consequences of Marx's shortened life that I've been able to think of:
 * Engels is an obscure philosopher who lacks the exposure he recieved in OTL ue to his association with Marx.
 * The Communist Manifesto is never written. Engels himself admitted that the bulk of the work was Marx's.
 * Russia's communists never come to power.

Any more thoughts? Cprhodesact 02:32, 7 August 2009 (UTC)
