Talk:List of communist states

Inclusion of Guinea-Bissau, Cabo Verde, and São Tomé and Príncipe?

After its independence in 1973, Guinea-Bissau was ruled as a one-party state by the African Party for the Independence of Guinea and Cape Verde, which espoused Marxism–Leninism. The party also governed Cabo Verde from its independence in 1975 to 1980, when a military coup in Guinea-Bissau led to the end of the union between the two states. The African Party for the Independence of Cape Verde, established in 1981, continued to espouse Marxism–Leninism and ruled as the sole legal party until the introduction of multi-party democracy in 1990. In Guinea-Bissau, the PAIGC likewise continued its rule as the sole legal party until it introduced multi-party democracy in 1991. In São Tomé and Príncipe, which gained its independence in 1975, the Marxist–Leninist Movement for the Liberation of São Tomé and Príncipe ruled, again as the sole legal party, until it too introduced multi-party democracy in 1990. I propose these three states be added to the list. The only issue is that they do not have distinct pages for their respective periods of communist rule, like for example the Seychelles do. This leaves me uncertain as to how to proceed, as every other state which is included (that is not currently a communist state like Cuba) has a distinct page for its communist era. How should I proceed? Do the states mentioned even merit including? If not, why? Patriotparty1776 (talk) 06:36, 24 January 2024 (UTC)
