That would not change the eventual outcome of the concept of communism. It would still be "discovered" and written about. Perhaps even within a similar time-period as Marx wrote his manifesto. Engels was also involved and multiple Political Scientists around the time either vaguely knew of or postulated in a "communal" system. The early Christians were among the first to practice communism on a large, "multi-state" scale.
