Pol Pot's Cambodia: Communist.
Kim Il Sung's North Korea: Based on a Communist system unique in that it glorifies Kim Il-Sung and Kim Jong-Il as gods. Both have magical powers and perform miracles, and Kim Il-Sung is thought to still be alive, 'resting' in the middle of his giant tomb.
None of these are based on atheism. All but North Korea has secularism as a major pillar, but were not founded on it. Keep in mind that the Republic is also secular in nature, making no mention of religion. The US was founded as a secular nation, with separation of Church and State. Isn't it also based on atheism, then, in your eyes?
