But i think i know where your coming from
Intro
-First world war was a key issue, brought social(over losses in the war), economical(high inflation) and political(tsarina/rasputin) problems to Russia
-However, not primary reason for outbreaks in 1917. Tsar involvement and army refusal was more important for revolution
1st Par(For)
-Russia losing many troops in war, inflicted damage amongst masses who did not fully understand commitment in war. Led to mutinies, strikes, unrest
-Russia experiencing high inflation because of war which made goods expensive and unaffordable, widespread famine. Food was already in shortage, made situation much worse
2nd Par(For)
-Russia was left in the hands of Tsarina and Rasputin as Tsar was busy leading war. Tsarina was German-born and Rasputin was unpopular peasant. Both seen as dissolving Russia while Tsar was busy leading the war. Tsarina accused of being on the germans side.
3rd Par(Against)
-It was not involvement in war that sparked revolution in 1917, rather the Tsars poor leadership in war.
-Tsar thought if he led Russia to victory he would gain more loyalty and patriotism, dissolving chances of a revolution
-Tsar did not listen to Generals advice
-Tsar led hundreds to their death/many battles lost
-Ruined "little father" image/made him look like a bad leader, not worthy of ruling Russia
-Pessimists agree revolution would have happened even if war did not happen, war simply delayed revolution
4th Par(Against)
-Army abandoned the Tsar
-Widespread mutinies due to war
-No one left to control the masses in Russia made revolution more likley
-Revolutionists let loose in Russia and troops joined in
Conclusion
-Army abandoned, this was more important than war itself. Oppossition groups were more free to spread revolutionary ideas
-Pessimists agree revolution would have happened even if war did not happen, war simply delayed revolution
-The Tsars bad leadership sped up revolution process as less felt loyal to him and were more inclined to find support in oppossition groups
Any good?
