4. Actually.....

Albania was China's European satellite and wasn't a part of the Warsaw Pact. Romania was ambivilent about the whole thing and didn't take part in the invasion of Czechoslovakia in 1968 (for it somehow wangled most favored nation status from us despite having that asshole stalinist Ceausescu as it's leader).

5. Are you sure about Albania?

Edited on Sun Oct-10-04 11:13 PM by Zuni

I thought Albania was like Yugoslavia, Communist but somewhat independant. I think Hoxha(who was possibly the worst of Eastern Europe's strongmen) was a Maoist.

Also, Albania was not overrun by Soviet troops in 1945. The countries that were became the WP.
