But when the Soviet Union received its constitution in 1924 nobody ever dreamed of that possibility.
但是蘇聯1924年頒布憲法后，沒人再敢妄想這種可能性了
Though the Soviet Union had now been declared the homeland of communism，
蘇聯現在已經對外宣布為共產主義的故鄉，
the communists themselves had not given up on world revolution. Far from it.
然而共產黨他們自己并沒放棄世界革命的夢想，事實遠非如此
In 1919 the communist party created the third international, or Comintern,
1919年共產黨創建了第三國際，
expressly designed to promote its brand of revolution throughout the world.
明確地表示其目的旨在將革命推廣到全世界
Unlike the Socialist International which was a democratic assembly of authentic socialist parties from around the world.
不同于社會黨國際，后者是一個真正的全世界社會主義政黨的民主大會
Membership in the Comintern was reserved for international parties either created by, controlled by or sympathetic to the Soviet Union.
而第三國際的成員僅限于由蘇聯創立或者控制，或為蘇聯所同情的國際政黨
Some European communist parties quickly became large and powerful as in Great Britain, France, Germany and Spain.
一些歐洲共產黨例如在英國，法國，德國和西班牙的政黨很快就擴充并強大起來
Other parties, especially in the far East, China and French Indo-China, grew more slowly but showed great lasting power.
而其他的共產黨，例如在遠東地區，中國和法屬印度支那的共產黨則發展地十分緩慢，但展現出了更持久的動力
The communist party of the US, although lavishly supported by the Soviet Union, was never much of a force politically or intellectually
美國的共產黨雖然得到了蘇聯的大力支持，卻不管在政治還是才智上從不算是一股力量
Although all of these parties supposedly reached out to the workers and peasants of their nations the Western parties were specifically Soviet tools.
盡管說，所有的這些政黨理應來幫助他們國家的工人和農民，而西方的政黨成了蘇維埃的工具
