Swedish victory
After Sweden winning the Great Northern War and defeating Russia and Denmark-Norway and some Russian allies betrayed Russia and gone with the Swedish side. Sweden controlled Scandinavia, the Baltic states, and some German states.

Brazilian Empire
There was a South American colonial empire, the Brazilian Empire. In this timeline, the Republicans failed to overthrow the monarchy because they are powerful.

The Scramble for Africa
The Swedish Empire colonized Cameroon, Equatorial Guinea, Ethiopia, Eritrea, Tanzania, Libya, and the Gambia. The Russian Empire would colonize the Congo, Gabon, Chad, and Sierra Leone. The Austro-Hungarians would have Somalia, Djibouti, Zambia, and Madagascar.

Brazil got Angola only as of the colony, and Portugal will get Mozambique, the French have an almost entire colony of West Africa, and they had Algeria and Morocco, as well. The Spanish got only the Western Sahara, and while the Germans got Togo only.

World War I
World War I would still occur due to the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria-Hungary, and it had formed a military alliance known as Central Powers. Meanwhile, the United States, Russia, France, the United Kingdom, Sweden, the Brazilian Empire, and many others formed a coalition known as the Allied Powers. But the Allied Power still won World War I in this timeline.

Russian Revolution
Vladimir Lenin arrived in Petrograd in April 1917. He was a Communist while the provisional government was Socialist. He had been exiled to Switzerland by the Tsar, but the Provisional Government had allowed him to come back. He began to lead a Communist group called the Bolsheviks.

In July, the Bolsheviks spent four days demonstrating against the Government. The military attacked them.

Lenin was forced to escape to Finland until August when the Bolsheviks were asked to help defend the government against a takeover by the army. The result of this was that their reputation improved. The government gave them weapons.

The Provisional Government's reputation kept getting worse as time went on. The Bolsheviks' reputation got better because they refused to work with them until both sides could compromise.

On October 10, the Bolshevik's Central Committee voted to start a revolution. One began in Estonia on October 23. Another started in St. Petersburg two days later. This time the revolution was mostly peaceful. The Bolsheviks' Red Army took over many government buildings without a fight - only two people were killed. It ended with the takeover of the Tsar's old Winter Palace on the morning of October 26, when the Provisional Government was arrested.

The Soviets took power and formed a Congress (a new Government) which began on October 25. Some members who were not Bolsheviks walked out during its first few meetings, but this made little difference to its decisions. The people who left were taunted by Leon Trotsky on their way out. He told them to go "where you belong... the dustbin of history!" All parties who opposed the Bolsheviks were eventually broken up, and their leaders were arrested.

Congress began to get rid of private property. This meant that all land and money were to be owned by the people, and control of factories was given to their workers.

Several countries that had been in the Russian Empire before the Revolution, such as Estonia and Ukraine, had been asking for independence since February. As the new government formed they declared independence and were allowed it.

In Russia, the revolution was severely challenged by countries that were not Communist and by the invading White Armies. In July 1918, countries including the United States, the United Kingdom, Sweden, and France sent more than 15 armies to fight the Bolsheviks. The ex-Tsar and his family were shot to stop them from being freed by the White Armies. To win the war, Lenin began a plan to divert food and supplies to the Communist Army. The plan worked. The Bolsheviks won the war, but the lack of food meant that between 3 and 10 million people died of hunger.

The Third Russian Revolution was an anarchist revolution against the Bolsheviks and the White Army. It lasted from 1918 to 1922.

Some European countries recognized the Soviet Union as a proper country in the early 1920s. The United States refused to until 1933.

World War II
In 1922, the Italian politician Benito Mussolini took power by having a large group of Italian men known as Black Shirts march on Rome and threaten to take over the government King Vittorio Emanuele III gave in, allowed him to form a government, and made him prime minister. In the following five years, he gained power, and in 1927 created the OVRA (Organization for Vigilance and Repression of Anti-Fascism), his secret police force. Using the agency to arrest, scare, or murder people against his regime. It would lead Mussolini to form the Fascist ideology. Mussolini also wanted Italy to become the second Roman Empire.

In 1933, The German politician Adolf Hitler was in jail, and he wrote a book with the help of his closest friend Rudolf Hess. He wanted to call the book Four and a Half Years of Struggle against Lies, Stupidity and Cowardice. In the end, he called the book Mein Kampf.

He had also the idea that the Aryan race was going to be way dominant than everybody else and that Jews and communists were connected. He got that idea from Nazi writer Alfred Rosenberg, then Adolf Hitler got elected in Germany, he ends freedom of speech and many of his enemies were arrested and got killed.

Finally, there was the former journalist, landowner, and then a politician Sven Traneson (which is non-existence in OTL); in the year 1927, he became a landowner of Tranemo landskommun after their agreement with Tranemo landskommun. Then, Sven began to create his political party known as Tranumoopartiet, later Sven becomes elected as a prime minister in Sweden and began to ban any free speech, and Americans, Germans, Russians, and anyone that are immigrant and those that are not Swedes were enslaved, murdered and segregated by the government, and the Royal Family from the country fled to their colonies because Sven doesn't want monarchy in his country, some of the Swedish population fled to the Swedish colonies, as well (which most of the colony that belongs to Sweden was under the government-in-exile); thus the Swedish Empire collapsed, and thus Tranan Empire was established.
