Talk:Albania (Wasteland Europe)

Albania is a strange case, having actually survived both Italian and German occupation, kicking out the Germans with no help from Russia, and yet remaining Communist in the midst of it all. However, in OTL, when Albania cut off relations with Russia in 1960, Communist China was there to take up the slack. In TTL, China remains free, and would be not be there to support the isolationist country. Could the regime survive without China's support?

The de-Stalinization in Albania may have proven a bad idea with no other Communist super-power to fall back upon. The regime would have probably had to work with the USSR in some way to remain communist. It is possible, I suppose, since Cuba in OTL has tenaciously held on to its communism after the fall of the USSR. But this will have to be dealt with. SouthWriter 15:15, July 19, 2010 (UTC)
