Soviet Dominance

This timeline explores a world where the Soviet Union and their Communist allies defeat the United States and NATO in the Cold War; a world most people, especially in the modern-day West can't even imagine.

The Soviet Union came out on top due to a variety of better military and economic choices. For example, the United States lost both Korea and Vietnam. The Union would also never denounce the Sino-Soviet Treaty of Friendship; with the Russians ending the Soviet-Afghan War and removing troops from Cambodia; ultimately ending the war with a Sino-Khmer victory. Another minor PoD is Konstatin Chernenko never getting into smoking; making him live longer and rule the Soviet Union until his death in 1993.
