AHC: Russia joins Central Powers in World War 1?

Come up with a scenario where Russia could join the Central Powers in World War 2 and describe how history would be different.

So this has got me interested for quite a while. I'm trying to wonder how exactly the Russian Empire could have joined the Central Powers instead. Perhaps Alexander II avoids assassination? Perhaps the Three Emperors' Alliance sticks? Maybe the Dogger Bank Incident is the cause of the war instead? Would the Nazis exist after the war? Would the US join the war?

The challenge here is to try to create a scenario where Russia joins the Central Powers in World War 1.

Um... a world in which Russia and Austria are allied is, by definition, one in which any WW I would have to be of a dramatically different character. The catylst of the whole thing was Russia protecting Serbia against Austria.
