A tale of two Emporers

In the 1880's, two monarchs died that could have changed european history had they lived longer. Kaiser Frederich the Third, and Czar Alexander the Second. Kaiser Frederich was known as having liberal tendencies, and Czar Alexander was the great reformer. We have all seen the many threads and timelines involving the survival of Frederich, what about Alexander? He was old when he died, no dout about it. He was probably going to die of a health related issue sometime in the next decade. But what if he wasn't assasinated? The day he was assasinated he was going to reveal his plan for a government legislative branch that would begin a graduall path toward parlimentary rule. He was assasinated before this could be achieved. He was succeded by his son Alexander the third, who ended all the reform and re-established the complete autocratic regime of the Czars.

Basically, what if Frederich had survived long enough to make a differance in Germany, and what if Alexander had survived long enough to introduce his legislative body? Could this prevent the Russian Revolution, or even the Great War, or would these event occur differently?
 
My hope is that this Legislative branch is able to remove the legal power of the czar to undo those changes by the time Alexander the second dies.
 
If Alexander II lives, his reforms might keep Russia a monarchy. If there are economic reforms, attempts at industrialization, as well then Russia might perform better in WW1.

My sig contains a timeline about Friedrich III living longer. Eventually a war does break out but it is more of a European war. This happens mostly due to Russian and French stupidity and Germany's will to keep supporting Vienna. Casus belli is Austro-Hungarian brutality in Bosnia after their governor there is assasinated. Because of Friedrich's pro-German attitude, Britain stays neutral, resulting in a totallt different war.
