Today’s communist-led governments exist mainly today in Asia; although, Cuba continues to operate as a communist nation. Other well-known communist-led governments include China, Laos, and North Korea. Interestingly, many countries that have embraced communism have stated that they have not achieved it, but rather, or working to achieve its ideals. Many critics argue that pure communism has never yet been achieved on a national stage.
