      Lenin wrote that the October Revolution of 1917 would never have taken place without the previous experience of the Paris Commune, the February 1917 Revolution, and the Revolution of 1905.       
      The Russian Revolution of 1905 was a dress rehearsal of the October Revolution of 1917.
       The 1905 revolution provided an opportunity to the working classes to organize strikes and build their organizations called Soviets. Such experience would provide invaluable in the 1917 revolution. The 1905 revolution also provided a glimpse of their power to the working classes.
       They realized that the Tsarist government of Russia was not very strong and would collapse under a sustained pressure from the working classes.
