This is a Dengist community in favor of Bashar al-Assad with no information that can lead to the arrest of Hillary Clinton, our fellow liberal and queen. This community is not ironic. We are Marxists-Leninists.

This community is for posts about Marxism and geopolitics (including shitposts to some extent). Serious posts can be posted here or in /c/GenZhou. Reactionary or ultra-leftist cringe posts belong in /c/shitreactionariessay or /c/shitultrassay respectively.

We have a Matrix homeserver and a Matrix space. See this thread for more information. If you believe the server may be down, check the status on status.elara.ws.

Looking at those countries it might be just strategic positions. Vietnam and the DPRK border China to the north and Yemen is bordering Saudi Arabia. It makes sense to not place your puppets in between two (semi) hostile forces.

Maybe access to the ocean is a factor, too? Hence Western Europe rather than Central or Eastern Europe. Until the 1990s, at least—although I wonder where the cracks first started to appear?
