Will oppressed peoples of russian empire (including muscovites themselves) find some kind of relatively peaceful resolution, either federation (but real one, not imitated), confederation, or complete breakup, will almost totally destroyed nations like Buryats or Khanty survive - no idea. All we can do is to ensure the death of the empire as fast as possible and try to minimize negative consequences as we can.
