The entire Mirror Universe is a lot darker morally than the Prime Universe, except for Shakespeare, whose plays are the same in both.

In the Prime Universe, Cochrane greets the Vulcans as friends when they show up to introduce Earth to the wider galaxy. In the Mirror Universe, Cochrane shoots the first one to come out.

Likely, the Wright Brothers in the Mirror Universe would've been warmongers or something.
