-With east Asia aligned with the west, A pact would form between Korea, Mongolia, China, Vietnam, Japan and Laos to stop the communist expansion into east asia, waging war with the USSR in 1949 with western aid, forcing them into submission. Japan takes Sakhakin, Mongolia takes Tuva and the ROC takes Vladvidostok from the soviets who's government seems to be failing. The ROC becomes a ideological hegemon in Asia whilst the soviets are humiliated and lose their influence in Asian countries, with Cambodia being the only one aligning itself with it. The USSR loses the city of Berlin to the western powers as a result of sending much of their troops to a futile effort in China. In the west the Muslims and Buddhists in the area are given greater autonomy and China becomes a beacon of hope in Asia.
