Not sure if this quite counts as fanfic, but also not sure where it would fit better. It's an alternate history where Rosa Luxemburg survives and world revolution comes to pass.

My inevitable critical take is that this is Great (wo)Man Theory

This is the case for a lot of alternate history simply because people like to start their what-ifs with a single change in history. Also, detailed counterfactual history is basically impossible to predict. It's really just a worldbuilding genre and should be considered one. Just don't take yourself too seriously, basically.

It's true, it's true. I just want the fact to be, "what if no colonialism?" or something
