In WIAF I am toying with the idea of having the Red Army "liberate" mainland Greece in the course of WW2 (something whose plausibility I am open to having shot out of the water by more knowledgeable people, but bear with me).
So, let's say that in the immediate post-war years, the USSR turns Greece into a People's Republic on the same model as other Eastern European countries under Red Army occupation. However, Crete is under the control of the British, who put the government of George II in charge as it had already breifly been in 1941. Presumably the capital is at Chania (let's say it is renamed Eleutheria). How would this play out in the following decades?
