Good lord, such a fantasy world… Lenin was allowed to return to Russia to end the war.

Key quote:”The Swiss communist Fritz Platten nonetheless managed to negotiate with the German government for Lenin and his company to travel through Germany by rail, on the so-called [']sealed train[']. The German government clearly hoped Lenin’s return would create political unrest back in Russia, which would help to end the war on the Eastern front”
