So really, governments are just another word for "states" of a country or area. |

Manifest der Kommunistischen Partei by Karl Marx. Communism is defined as
stateless. In order for communism to exist, there can be no states; no countries.
A country cannot be "run by communism", as you claim. Nor can it be "run by theocracy". That doesn't make any sense. A state can be a theocracy, but it can't be "run by theocracy". An ideology doesn't govern a state.
The goal of Communist parties is to bring about communism. Note that so-named "communist countries" or "communist states" don't
ever claim to be "communist states" themselves. The Soviet Union's official name was the
Union of Soviet Socialist Republics.
The bottom line is that communism is defined as stateless. A state cannot be communist since that would be contrary to the definition of communism — a contradiction.
