@Modern
Stalins policy of collectivization was actually based of Trotskies propositions towards collectivization. Trotsky believed whole heartedly in collectivization.

Bukharin was also considered a hero of the peasentry,being the biggest oppennt of collectivization and the biggest proponent of the NEP, with the whole "peasents, enrich yourselves!" quote

How about adding this dude to USA and changing their flag to a more fitting one, maybe inspired by kaiserreich mod for hoi4 coz the name of council republic USA is inspired by it. Link to the politician: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philip_Van_Patten

Any plans to add agitators?

Great Work! It would be interesting to make Stalin the leader of the petite-bourgeoisie (representing clerks, bureaucrats, and shop-keepers and all that). Stalin was much less progressive than Lenin or Marx and Engels (specifically on things like the Family, Homosexual relations, abortion, nationalism, and so on). Making him head of the petite-bourgeoisie with Vanguardism as a trait would encourage socialism in one country (council republic, closed borders, autocracy, command economy). So have Lenin be TU, Trotsky be Red Army, Bukharin be Intelligentia, and Stalin be Petite-bourgeoisie.

Also, an interesting option for an industrialist figure could be Alexander Parvus, who was (without their knowledge) using his business contacts to transfer money from Germany to the Bolsheviks before the revolution.

Liebknecht had been at one point in the military, so he'd not be a horrible choice for a military leader. Engels also served as second in command to August Willich in the 1848 German Revolution. (Coincidentally, Willich became a Brigadier general in the Union Army during the U.S. Civil War, and would not be a horrible choice for an American communist general in the 1800s period)

Also, Stalin was mostly opposed by peasants. Both Lenin and Trotsky opposed the idea of forced collectivisation of russian peasants. Great work, still.
You could also add bukharin as the leader of the intelligenzia of russia, he was considered the philosophical 'golden boy' of the soviet union by lenin. :gaben:

How would you explain the majority industrialists following communism? (Even if friedrich engels somehow became an influencial industrialist politics figure)
