There is no creative liberty in this series. Everything with the word 'Commune' has eventually 'collapsed'. He didn't want them to become the graveyard for the democracy.
I am not sure if it was included in the novel version but during the last season, there was a scene in which we can see Attenborough telling Poplan that he wouldn't want the word 'Commune' to get attached with them. As a result, communism had a bad reputation. USSR was on the verge to collapse, while China experienced the Tiananmen square protest. Similarly, the Galactic Empire uses the currency called 'Imperial Mark'. Also, for many decades, Germany kept using the currency Deutsche Mark, before it got replaced with the Euro.
The Galactic Empire setting is largely based on the pre war Prussian but even then on multiple occasions, the main characters of the Galactic Empire were pressing on the 'unification of the universe'. In 1990, the Berlin Wall broke down and the East and the West Germany became one country 'Germany' again.

The American movie was entirely shot in Salzburg, Austria. The opening songs themselves give us the feeling of listening to the extended themes of the Oscar winning movie 'A sound of music'. On multiple occasions, Mozart, Beethoven and other artists' themes were played in the background. Oberstein's character too was disliked by the Kaiser's other subordinates for his methods or policies just as how Waldheim would be labelled as 'persona non grata'. Similarly, it has been observed that Oskar Von Reuental was accused of disloyalty multiple times after his Kaiser appointed him as the Governor General. The accusations of war crimes started flowing as soon as he started his campaign for the election.
Huge debate was sparked around the world when the ex-nazi officer Kurt Waldheim was elected as the President of Austria from 1986 to 1992. Even if we talk about the empire, the Showa era ended with Hirohito, starting the new Heisei era. The possible influence I could think of is that during the 80s, Japan saw 4 different Prime Ministers throughout the decades. Even Ginga Eiyuu Densetsu is a rare fiction from Japan, which primarily focuses on the world politics. Till date it is said that not many Japanese are interested in the politics and the voting percentage during the elections remain low. However, people became workaholic and other than their jobs, they took little interest in other things. The citizens enjoyed high real wages, low unemployment rates, excellent health care, above average consumption of goods and services. During the 1980s, the economic growth of Japan was at its peak.

The Free Planets Alliance represents the democratic country. The Galactic Empire resembles the 19th century Prussia, which used to rule by the emperors, also known as Kaiser. For 150 years, two mighty space powers have intermittently warred with each other: the Galactic Empire and the Free Planets Alliance. Many years after the repetitive disasters on earth, a large majority of the humanity moved away from it and settled within the various parts of the galaxy. Throughout this anime, we have constantly seen the comparison between the democratic government and the absolute monarch.

While it has been a full fledged democratic country since the Post war period, they have retained their constitutional monarchy. During the war era, Japan that we know today was an Imperial Japan and was an authoritarian state.
