Until the 1940s, the only countries that were recognized as socialist were the Soviet Union, which emerged after the Russian Revolution of 1917, and a few other Eastern European nations like Hungary and Poland briefly experimented with socialism during and after World War I. Additionally, the short-lived socialist government in Bavaria in 1919 and other similar movements existed, but they were not sustained. The global spread of socialism significantly increased after World War II, particularly with the establishment of communist regimes in various countries.
