We would hope that you try and get to known us and our region.

If we would become allies it would be a big breakthrough in relations in our region's history.

Lenin wrote on 5 September 1905 in Proletary: "The autocracy has adopted the theory of “consultation” between the tsar and the people. Desirous of consulting with a police-screened handful of persons elected by the landowners and shop keepers, the autocracy is beginning with desperate ferocity to suppress the revolution. Broader circles of the monarchist bourgeoisie are in favour of the theory of compromise between the tsar and the people (the Osvobozhdeniye League, or the Constitutional-“Democratic” Party). By this theory the bourgeoisie is showing its treachery to the revolution, its readiness first to support it and then to unite with the reactionaries against it. The revolutionary proletariat, inasmuch as it is led by Social-Democracy, demands the sovereignty of the people, i.e., the complete destruction of the forces of reaction, and, above all, the actual overthrow of the tsarist government and its replacement by a provisional revolutionary government."

Down with Monarchism! It is contrary to everything Communism stands for. Power belongs in the hands of the masses, not in the hands of a king, nor of a queen, nor of a tsar. An end to capitalist imperialism!

Though I generally agree and of course hope we can establish friendly relations, a straight-up alliance with a monarchist region is not something I'd like to see...

We are not asking for an alliance at this point.

Just some friendly peace talks that we can do to get to know each other as regions.

26 December 2016 will be 25 years since real USSR falled. That was, is and will always bad for us.

Today on Russia Today (better known under its abbreviation RT) there was an article that said that Putin thinks the USSR wouldn't have collapsed if the Soviet leadership had made more reforms. He said a collapse wasn't needed and that it could have been avoided.

Personally, I think Gorbachev messed up. If only Andropov and Chernenko had lived a little bit longer... or what if Gromyko had become General-Secretary of the CPSU, instead of Gorbachev?

On a more happy note, today I ordered "The history of the communist party of the Soviet Union (Bolsheviks)". I'm sure it will be interesting to read. Has anyone read it?

I do have a copy actually, it's a fairly good book. There's a Party over here that still prints copies of it, along with a few other classics, and I got a copy from an event they held for an excessively high price.

Thanks! I bought mine for €25.76, which is a lot compared to the price they sold it for in the USSR (the price of about 1.5 liters of milk). Now I'll just have to wait until it arrives (which can take up to 10 working days).

Unfortunately, we no longer have a Communist Party in the Senate and the House of Representatives in the Netherlands. The party ceased to exist in 1991 when it merged with other parties. We still have the Socialist Party, but they scrapped Marxism-Leninism in 1991 as well.

On 26 December 2016 we will only talk about how real USSR did before it ceased to exist on positive and negative sides. Mark it on your canedar dates.

Helloz everyone!

I've read the ABC of Communism recently. Very interesting book, more a guide of Soviet Communism in practice, rather than purely theoretical. Written between 1919-21, so doesnt quite cover the areas where the USSR failed, but good nonetheless.
