What's ironic is that spain was one of the arbiters of the change in reality. The system that spain set up with mercantilism brought enormous wealth to the bourgeoisie.
Russia is another example. The constant infighting between russias nobility and... everyone else led to Russia being unable to industrialize properly, everyone getting fucked, basically, jews smelling blood in the water, and then a communist revolution.
But with how the Russian empire and its nobility were conducting themselves, and with the entry into ww1, something violent would have happened in the country even if jews had never existed. Most of the white army didn't even like the monarchy or the aristocracy. Kolchak would have been installed as dictator if they had won and the monarchy would still have been dead and gone. Maybe its members would be doing well in Russia, but they were never going to he in power again.
