Sure, about that? Sure the Russian Empire doesn't get itself into a war with Germany, a war in which it is outclassed, and in over its head, and destabilized, leading to a revolution, that could go radical, even Bolshevik?The big butterfly isn't Japan it's Russia. No defeat means no 1905 Revolution and almost certainly no 1917 Revolution. The October Revolution and the creation of the Soviet Union was the greatest catastrophe of the 20th century. No Soviet Union not only saves tens of millions of Russians it also probably stops any major country going Communist which in turn kills Nazism. The list the major genocides/multi-million dead catastrophes that this would have avoided; Holodomor, Holocaust, Great Leap Forward, Killing Fields of Cambodia to name a few is extremely long.
