I think that's the point. You can't really separate the two; the Russian revolution really owes a lot to the catastrophic showing in WWI.

That said, the delay in the war may have led to a more gradual and less radical collapse of the Russian monarchy and the establishment of a republic (like that which existed between March-October 1917) rather than a communist state. There's another what if :hmm:
From what I gather the revolution was going to happen, I guess the Tsar would have been in a better position to put the rebellion down or maybe it could have had a more peaceful solution. Really makes you wonder... :hmm:
