Why would they be changed? Just because Human history took a darker turn in this timeline, there's no reason that would've affected those other societies, except insofar as humanity interacted with them. |
Mirror Universe is a parallel universe where the characters are inverted, it's not just an alternative universe where one different event caused a series of other events and they diverged permanently.
Humans in MU are vastly different than the ones in "our" universe (read evil, brutal etc); that can't be the result of a different time line. |

That's your interpretation. I'm fine with the idea that there was some sort of divergence in Earth's history.
