What would happen if Venus had a moon the size of mercury making it the 1st planet in the solar system and Earth the 2nd along with it's moon? Would it change evolution on Venus?

Who's smart enough to answer this, I really want to know.
 
Never heard of such a theory.

Now that you've made me research this subject, there's been a hypothesis of a Venus' moon, called Neith. It was allegedly observed by various astronomers in the past centuries, but has since been shown to be misinformation. What they saw was either a star or possibly some uncharted asteroid.
