What would decolonization have looked like without both World Wars? Just how much bloodier of an independence struggle are we going to see in the developing world if the Great Powers aren't themselves extremely bloodied by two prior World Wars? And which colonies (either de facto colonies or de jure colonies) could the Great Powers have actually kept up to the present-day in this TL?
Will there be any major country other than perhaps the US who will actively support decolonization in this TL? A socialist but non-Communist Russia, perhaps? And will left-wing working-class solidarity also eventually extend to the working-classes of the developing world? Or would the feeling be that, as non-whites, they are non-deserving of working-class solidarity from European socialist parties?
Thoughts on all of this?
