I'm a student in search for numeral perspectives on the subject of alternate history concerning the existence of communism. What if communism and fascism were never introduced to the world? My main focus is around the 20th century during the period around the World Wars, but if relevant, I hope to trace it back to Karl Marx and his views, which brings up another question: did his perspective on communism and/or socialism provide a significant foundation to modern communism in the 20th century? Aside from Russia, what about China, Korea, Yugoslavia, and any other country which made attempts or succeeded at communism? Also, would it have affected the outcome of WWII or Adolf Hitler's motives in any way? I'm solely looking for preferably a web or chain of events that would or would not occur if communism did not exist or, if relevant to Marx's views, expand beyond his ideas. Hope someone may generously contribute his/her time into giving me an insight and advice on the issue: What if communism and fascism were never introduced to the world? Thanks.
