The societies weren't atheistic at first and then got drenched into believe suddenly; most of these societies were theist, and remained theist after certain events that manipulated its culture and history; resulting in a strong shift into religious extremism and harsh explanations to get over the "hunger" of the day. 

Atheism stayed but changed in places like North Korea and China, but the people were drifted into another form of theism -If you want to call Kim and Mao God-.


I wouldn't turn it into a case of theism and atheism; but I would point to the levels of change desperation can force humans into. Desperation can make people believe the unbelievable.

All dictators know it: hunger makes wonders. It even make us hallucinate.
