Two wars set the stage for the Russian Revolutions of 1917. The first was the Russo-Japanese War in which Russia suffered a humiliating defeat. Soldiers were very dissatisfied with the Tsar's mishandling of the war and indifference to their living conditions. The second war, which directly led to the revolution was World War 1.

It didn't. It occurred during the latter stages of WW I.

But looking at the general politics of the 1920s and 1930s, you could say that Soviet Russia having a very different type of government was part, but only a small part, of the complex process that led up to the Second World War.

The Russian Revolution was in 1917 during World War One. In 1905 Russia was defeated by Japan.

The Russo-Japanese War led to the incident on January 9, 1905 referred to as Bloody Sunday and which some historians consider to be part of the Russian Revolution even though it happened 12 years before the 1917 revolution. The Russo-Japanese War was just one of the many grievances Fr. Georgi Gapon and over a hundred thousand marchers were asking the Tsar to correct.

Bloody Sunday began the break with the total autocratic rule of the Tsars. It convinced many people that the Tsar was not the "little father" who was looking after them. It also scared Nicholas II into issuing the October Manifesto which created the legislative body called the Duma and provided for expanded civil rights.
