Yes, I noticed that too. Honestly, I was surprised, that there was no group in test's auth-left quadrant. I knew, that right-wing libertarianism wasn't a thing back then (at least not in Russia), but I thought, that Bolsheviks would be more auth-left.


This is specifically the Bolsheviks in 1917, which was before Stalin took over and broke literally everything.
The American Empire is a socially progressive absolute monarchy run by the heirs of Emperor Norton. It started off at MT but has rapidly advanced to PMT through interdimensional travel. All NSstats are used, except for tax rate and population. Factbooks are currently under reconstruction.

My point is that they were way, way more authoritarian even in 1922 than in 1917, let alone the 1930s.

Apparently left SR, despite supporting the provisional government and commitment to allies (WW 1 was an imperialist move by Austria Hungary and should have ended with its capitulation, not a cease-fire.), but otherwise I agree on a lot of stuff they do apparently.
Does that mean I'd get purged is what I wonder.

I just got Left-SR even though I'm much more sympathetic to Kerensky and the Mensheviks.
The State of Iran ✺ "Independence, Freedom, and the Iranian Nation"
Welcome to Iran | Overview | Anthem | Retcon Underway | Set in: 1980
After the success of the Nojeh Coup; Iran becomes a transitional regency, hybrid (military) regime which clamps down on everything politically Islamic. Now suffering from an Afghan-like insurgency from the Quds and MEK, and intricate deep state politics between the Gang of Four.
The "Persagonian Republic" is a misnomer. We are a transitional regency.
Ettela'at News: Previous officials of the old IR regime including Abdolhassan Banisadr and Ali Rajai reported missing after the Qom Raid. Rumors are abound that the Islamists are assembling the Al-Quds opposition to wage jihad against the new govt.

Can someone explain the principles of the Bolsheviks compared to the Mensheviks? They were both communist right?

The Menshviks were scattered moderates who were typically more liberal than the Bolshviks. They wanted a less sceret and exact revolution while the more radical Bolsheviks created a Blanquist organization that disrupted the system and later gained many followers.

I may redo the test at some point, as I think it was actually quite a long time ago that I did it.
