Looks like we can't.
The largest and most powerful communist alliance of countries was a republic - the "United Soviet Socialist Republic" (USSR).
Being a republic isn't necessarily a good thing.
There are some very stable, peaceable, prosperous, free and fair governments around the world, and throughout history, that aren't, or haven't been, republics.
You can get information on all sorts of things like that on the internet if you look for it.
The CIA World Factbook used to a fairly good resource. Unfortunately it has recently been shuttered by the Trump administration, despite its usefulness in education.
