So help me, find me a non-imperialist country or I'll 'civilize' every last one of these hostages!

Assuming one accepts the USSR and its bloc as inherently non-imperialistic.
If so, though, good news: the DDR still exists. There’s an uninhabited island off Cuba that Fidel Castro gifted to the DDR, which has not passed into possession of the Bundesrepublik.
The Ernst Thälmann Island (Cayo Ernesto Thaelmann) was only named after the KPD leader, but not gifted to the DDR in terms of its territory. While, the English Wikipedia article is not distinct in that point and mentions the island being "gifted", the German one is very clear, that only its name should honour the substitute saint of the DDR Ernst Thälmann while the territory remained part of Cuba.
