Rise of Russia - Pre-TL Discussion

So, a TL that I'm planning, entitled Rise of Russia, involves as a POD Nicholas I of Russia being assassinated on January 1st 1836 and Alexander II reaching the throne early.

So, what do you think are high-probability results of this POD? I'm looking for the Russian Empire to survive to the present day - does the POD make this more likely? I'd also like to know some butterflies that would likely happen as a result.
 
Nobody interested? :(

Its not so much disinterest as I honestly have no clue

Aleksandr II was more liberal than his father BUT it was no doubt he developed over time

And seeing his father assassinated might well make him more reactionary than he was in OTL

Or maybe he became even more liberal... to a early democratic Russia?
