Spanish Civil War -(im not going to do any of their names except franco because i forgot them kek) Spanish monarchists do an oopsy to hard this time and try to prevent spain collapsing by allowing democracy, spanish republicans win the election and oust the king immediately, the republicans were a mix bag of liberals, socialists, trotykist-communists and stalinist-communists(these last two designations are important). The Republicans create an indefinite system of social reform that ironically didn't implement any democratic values while forcing many progressive laws onto the spanish population who were rural and very catholic compared to the liberal socialists with a fedora streak, this of course pisses off the spanish population who demand democratic vote, the unelected officials socialist bureaucrats acquiesce and a hardliner right wing guy wins and starts undoing most of the reforms which pisses off the left wing city slicker demographic and hardline communists, violence erupts from the left wing who commit many terroristic acts and the right wing government loses legitimacy because of a scandal involving either embezzling or something basically overt corruption occurred and it pissed every one off and it emboldened the far left radicals to go even further, which also pissed off every one so the right wing fascist group Falange sprung into full throttle and initially had approval because they were curbstomping faggot communists but again with everything it gets out of hand and they also start behaving like faggots and going to far, the communist and socialist section of the republicans start to go full mask off and arrest and politically assassinate many figures of several right wing groups both moderate and extreme, even the falange group's leader got arrested. It becomes apparent to many of the not-assassinated members of the military that their not left wing and probably going to be purged stalin style soon since any democratic and peaceful solution has just been terminated by the republicans recent actions so the reasonable next step is to oust them before they get put into a mass grave, in comes yuh boy Franco who proceeds to curbstomp the republicans with help from Portugal and the Axis of Friendship. Important Note: a lot of left wing republicans were not a huge fan of arresting and murdering most of the moderate right wingers of whom were also members of the republicans most of these actions were done by the socialists/communists of the party who subverted it and the stalinists had disproportionate weight in the party because of the soviet union backing especially as the civil war waged on and they put most of the trotskyists and mild socialists into mass graves to further their own supremacy of the government which should be noted to liberals that with communists, never relax.
Years of Lead: member' world war 2 and that Italy was the home of fascism well the Allies kept a hand full of these guys un-executed because the Soviet Union existed and just propped up the entirety of eastern europe into puppet communist countries which spooked the shit out of Murica' and Britain. Anyways cold-war gay ops wages on and Italy has become a hot bed of socialists and commie fuckery as of late especially since the recent government made many oopsies which emboldened the commies to make their second or third shot at trying to make pizza associated with karl marx. The CIA decides to commence order 66 and spring loose many of the un-executed fascists who during this time in the 50s-60s bolstered a lot of their number and styled them selves heavily as "anti communists" on their resume to NATO and the intelligence agencies. It basically becomes a time of 1930s nostalgia because it now its far right and far left people curbstomping each other in the streets with a lot of normies becoming collateral damage, whether intended or more likely incidentally this sours a lot of the populace to the radical parties even more which stabilizes the moderate albeit corrupt and shitty government and they start doing the apprpopriate arrests with some of the members of the right wing radicals simmering down and becoming moderate politicians and dismantle a lot of the organized violence of their paramilitary groups. To further understand this read more into the CIA's Operation Gladio.
Yugoslavia's collapse: this is very simple, Yugoslavia was an artificial country created after ww1 consisted of basically most of the balkanite slavic ethnicities combined together to in theory make a functional and less likely to be annexed country in the balkans. In practice it's government had an overt preference of the serbians and thus a lot of serbian culture felt forced over the other ethnic groups namely croats. WW2 happens and yugoslavia gets put into germany's sausage maker and what comes out is a right wing croat puppet government consisting of butthurt croats who remembered the whole serbian lead yugoslavia thing and start massacring and ethnic cleansing the serbians within their vicinity. This starts a cascade where every paramilitary group in nazi occupied yugoslavia and puppet-croatian controled territories start going apeshit and begin ethnic cleansing eachother more than shooting at the german occupiers. Well except one specific communist group lead by Tito who was a half croat-half serbian and his coordinated efforts were more interested at shooting germans than massacring villagers of the incorrect ethnicities, lots of retardation and political collaborations happen with the right wing groups to Germany which sours a lot of the slav opinions of them and basically makes Tito popular, although what makes Tito super popular was his total clemency for any one willing to join him in kicking germany's ass out of yugoslavia, to keep it brief he earns himself more legitimacy than the exiled yugoslavian government and becomes the de facto leader of the new yugoslavia, however every one still kind of remembers the whole ethnic cleansings and massacres thing but Tito was so popular that he kept everything together so the moment he died everything went to shit because every one was still bitter about that previous ordeal and also their white-nigger nationalist compelled them to make their ethnicity the head honcho of the yugoslavian government which caused the smaller ethnic groups to book it specifically the croats and slovenians which cascaded to every one fucking off except the serbians.
Ottoman collapse: no one likes Turks, the end.
