Literally nowhere on earth has any substantial Trotskyites outside of maybe the UK and scattered parts of America. The closest thing to Trotskite revolutions were some contingents of the Spanish Civil War and one very odd Posadist group mentioned by Che during the Cuban Revolution. You're allowed to like Trotsky's writings, that's fine, but Trostkyism itself isn't anything of a serious movement.
