Wilhelm Pieck

Friedrich Wilhelm Reinhold Pieck, or simply Wilhelm Pieck, is the potential Stalinist leader of the German Free State. If the Entscheidung does not result in a clear decision between Hindenburg, Lettow-Vorbeck nor Ludendorff, then a socialist rebellion can occur. Pieck is the leader that emerges if Stalinism is chosen over Spartacism. This would bring the German Free State closer to the Soviet Union, rather than to its actual German predecessor.
