I will write this timeline with the format JSilvy wrote Sand and Steel: The Story of the Modern Middle East (TL) as I got inspired by the way he wrote his TL.

15 February 1948, 08:00 AM -Czernin Palace, Prague

Jan Masaryk awoke from his bed from what couldn't be called sleep. Weeks of political tension had caused him insomnia, the communists just couldn't stop causing problems threatening to dissolve the government.

- How the hell can Beneš handle all this?

Dragging his feet to the bathroom he opened the faucet to wash his face. Suddenly the door of the bathroom opened with a strong whip. With the heart beating fast, Jan saw a man of about 40 years old dressed in military uniform and an ice look.

-Who the hell are you? Get out of my home!

Without saying a word, the man jumped on Jan, pushing and pushing him towards the window, struggling with his strength against that man, lying on the edge of the window, Jan felt his end.
Suddenly the assailant slipped a little lightening the grip, with his last forces Jan managed to turn and change position to the assailant who slid back again, swinging backwards and finally falling towards the void. Jan lay on the bathroom floor, exhausted from the fight that he did not even hear the blow. When he recovered his breath he looked out the window, the man was dead.

But as the following weeks would show, their problems would be far from dying.
