Start off slow and simple. Both revolutions deposed unelected monarchs, a king and a czar. They royal families were both executed. There was a class hatred in both revolutions. French and Russian peasants bore animosity towards the upper classes. In both Revolutions the military abandoned leaders and mutinied against the government. Use this plane of thought and it will all come together for you. The French was in the 1780's and the Russian was in 1917.
Bojan Jankovic says
The French Revolution showed that the power of the people can overwhelm even the most entrenched aristocracy. It also shows that, while repression and war can be tolerated by the general populace, economic incompetence and military failure are a dire combination for any government trying to maintain its hold on power. An opponent strikes when the enemy is at its weakest and most vulnerable.
