Day 1: Sunday 1917

Dear Diary,
Today us Russians have rebelled against their country, deeming us free! Tomorrow we have a new leader named Joseph Stalin because Tsar Nicholas II had been forced to step down from the throne. The Bolsheviks have just seized power, lead by Vladimir Ulyanor, who act on behalf of the Soviets. This war has regimented our economy, suppressed nationalist rebellions, and committed countless aristocracies, but it was all worth it, for now we shall lead better lives. This war has even been good for the those lower class men,  who have been integrated into the Red Army and the local governments. Our government has turned so friendly, and it's only day 1. Communism will be good for our country, and I personally believe ever country would benefit from it!

 As a mother of two messy, energetic, but sweet boys, I believe communism will help us women lead easier lives in our households. We shall be treated better, and even offered jobs in the workforce, to earn money! Oh how pleased my husband would be to see me making my way, on my own, and earning my own money. We are looking towards a great future, us women. I can feel it. 
Until Tomorrow,
Anna♡

Day 4: Wednesday 1941

Dear Diary, The Terror has begun. The USSR has fallen to a state of paranoia! Many of our fellow citizen's are being sentenced to Gulags, harsh labor camps, because they are thought to be trying to restore capitalism! How am I supposed to know who to trust, who should I believe?! Men are being shot on the streets, almost one million people already! And it's not just Party members who are being shot, ordinary people are too. Just last night, a dear friend of ours, Tim, was shot but a secret police member after the accused him of being a secret capitalist. They didn't even give the man a second to explain himself. One second he was alive, the other he was dead. Oh, I don't want to think about it anymore! The length people will go to get people to agree with them is outrageous. One day, I hope to see a world were we can all get along. Until Tomorrow, Anna♡

Day 5: Thursday 1950

Dear Diary, Since I am suddenly so busy all the time, I really do not have time to write. Here is a letter from a pen-pall of mine in China. She is also a mother of two boys, which is partly why we're such good friends! Dear Anna, Our "women's liberation" is just as limited as yours. Although, we did get the Marriage Law passed, which allows women free choice of marriage, easier divorce, end of concubine and child marriage. This law is wonderful because now my 12 year old niece does not have to be married off to that retched man, who is much to old for her. It also includes equal property rights for women. The Chinese Communist Party is acting so well against the opposition of pro-female change, I could not be more proud! Women are getting more jobs day after day. Also, thank you for that hand crafted shampoo you sent me with your last letter! My hair is bouncier than ever thanks to you! Best wishes, 尺⋃ Ru seems to be doing fine, I need to make her mo...

Day 7: Saturday 2000

Dear Diary, Mikhail Gorbachev has become General Secretary and has launched an economic reform program, which has shown all the atrocities that Stalin has committed. He has also allowed free elections and has negotiated arms control with the United States in an attempt to end the Cold War. The USSR has officially collapsed. Gorbachev has refused to use force against the protesters of his reforms. As a result,  15 new states have emerged from the USSR and I'm not sure what we're going to do now. Communism has collapsed here, and Ru tells me it has collapsed in China as well. There is only one communist state left which is North Korea. As for me, life is the same as it was when I once started this diary, and I can't wait to see what the next week will bring! Wishing you the best, Anna♡
