There were 4 monarchies that were overthrown and replaced by democratic governments except in Russia, that became the first communits country in the world.

Austria and Hungary suffered a large loss of its territory and became minor players in Europe from then on. The Ottoman Empire which was controlled by the Turks, was overthrown and new countries were created like Iraq. The Romanovs in Russia were overthrown in 1917 and much of the aristocracy fled to France and England, to escape from the Bolsheviks and the civil war that ensued. The end of the first world war was an end of an era. No longer would the European aristocracy have any clout anywhere in Europe.

Why was life difficult for Christians in the Roman empire in the middle ages?

I think you have your times confused. The Roman empire was in existence roughly a thousand years before the historical period called the middle ages. The two did not overlap, at least not in the west. Life was no more difficult for Christians in the time of the Roman empire than it was for anyone else, except during the times of persecution. And even in those times, Christians were not rigorously hunted down. By the time the middle ages came around everyone was a Christian and life was hard for everyone except the kings and members of the upper classes.
