For all talks about how the Ottoman Empire would inevitably collapse with or without WW1 (overall sentiment is no - its collapse was not inevitable, and it could survive if it took necessary steps to), a topic that I do not often see even in surviving Russian Empire discussions, is whenever if some of its regions would ever gain independence in the scenario of a surviving Russian Empire who keeps existing well into the late 20th century til the present day.
Overall, with no Russo-Japanese War, no WW1, and no Russian Revolution, the Empire would be industrialized into a powerhouse, albeit one suffering from chronic problems, it would still fall to revolution, but this time a revolution would likely be one that turns the country into a constitutional monarchy instead of an alt-USSR, given that I do not have in mind a Russo-Japanese War ever happening, that or Russia wins it.
Overall, could Finland and Poland expect to forget about any chances of independence, and undergo heavier Russification, likely turning to calls for greater autonomy and the federalization of the empire into something more similar to OTL Russia, instead of Independence?
About the non-Christian parts of the empire, could there be any separatist sentiments, revolts, and movements in Russian Turkestan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, etc.?
