Introduction

The POD in this Timeline is in 1897 when instead of exiled Vladimir Lenin is executed in Petrograd. In 1904 Leon Trotsky joins the Russian Social-Democratic Labour Party and after 7 party members are shot dead durin a protest in Moscow Leon Trotsky starts the Russian Revolution which ends in 1918 with the Tsardom of Russia becoming the Russian Peoples Republic.

Other things which diverge from our timeline include:

A rebellion in Austrian Dalmatia in 1917 druing ww1 causes the early downfall of austro-hungary and the creation of the Kingdom of Croatia.

The Sykes–Picot Agreement never happens and most of the Arabian Peninsula is united under Hejazi Arabia.

Important Post-ww1 Events
in 1918 Russia invades the newly created state of poland and annexes it in 1920.

After the Great War germany goes through a much more important November Revolution in 1918-1922. After the Freikorps won against the communist they overthrew the weimar republic, putting  Oskar von Watter in power turning germany into a junta.

Hungary and Romania continue to despiute the owner of transylvania until in 1922 when  the league of nations interfere and make transylvania into an independent state with Anton Istvan as its first President.

Communist France
In 1930 the french communist party creates a coup with support from russia and has Maurice Thorez put in power. France becomes the western most arm of the Fourth Internationale (FI) and releases its colonies in africa and asia turning selling morocco and turning the rest into sattelite states to france. Vietnam however fights a civil war making them into a democracy while Cambodia and Laos are invaded and annexed by Siam in the Siamese Recalmation war in 1935.

Quebec
In 1940 the Workers Army of Quebec (WAQ) who had been an active but small terror organisation since the 20s did an attack on montreal killing 13 police officers, 48 civillians and woundings over 100. Led by Kenneth Morin, WAQ started numerous riots and after Premier Adelard Godbout is killed in a bombing of the parliment house Kenneth Morin takes control of Quebec and after 2 years of fighting Canada and the Uk with the help of Russia and France the treaty of ottawa is signed giving Quebec newfoundland and complete independence. While technically part of the Fourth Internationale Quebec became isolationist under Morins entepretation of Socialism (Marxist-Morinism) and would be the last communist country after the eventual fall of the Fourth Internationale

Holy War of America
While europe and africa becoming more and more subejcted to socialism America becomes radicalised and many movments against communism pop up during the 30s. The biggest of these was the christian movment of America with 2.7 million members before the jacksonville Riots which sparked the beggining of the second american civil war in 1939 ending in 1943 with Brother Jhonathan becoming archpreist of the united states and the New Church of America taking the place of the senate. After the Theocracy is installed in America state Religion became enforced and State autonomy was increased. In 1945 Brother Jhon goes on to creates the Tallahassee Pact with Germany and Italy  to rival the Fourth Internationale.
