WWI (The Impossible Entente)

War in East Asia
July 19th, 1911:

'Treaty of Brest-Litovsk
After a crippling treaty removed almost all of Russia’s colonies in territories in east asia and east europe, Russia’s white government crumbled, allowing Trotsky to easily take control of the country, and form The Union of Soviet Socialist Republics.

Treaty of Milan
Italy’s involvement in the war was met with a brief end. The treaty of Milan would grant the Dervish State independance, cede Eritrea to Ethiopia, cede Somaliland to the Tüjk Republic and cede Libya and Lombardy to Austria-Hungary.

Spanish Influenza
In late 1816, a separate but related event occurred. A new, viral strain of the flu was observed in the United States and was known as the "Spanish flu". The flu was hypothesized to have originated in east asia, and spread rapidly through continental North America and Central America. The exact number of casualties resulting from the epidemic is unknown but about 10 million people are estimated to have died.
