Comintern
Soviet revolutionary network
Comintern was the Communist International, an organization founded in Moscow in 1919 to promote worldwide communist revolution.
It coordinated communist parties across countries under Soviet leadership until Stalin dissolved it in 1943.
The term appears in historical discussions of interwar politics and Cold War origins: Comintern agents operated throughout Europe and Asia.
