Austria

country, France, has fought in this war and has several demands for Austria-Hungary and Germany. We wish that Germany return our territory Alsace- Lorraine which they took in 1870. We request that Germany and its allies accept full responsibilty for the war it has caused. We also request that Germany's military force be limited, so that it will not be a major threat in the future. These are our demands and we hope that Germany and Austria-Hungary follow them. As most of this war was fought…

Ferdinand. This sparked Austria-Hungary and Germany to declare war on Serbia, and it all went downhill from there. But before we get too far ahead let’s take a look back to 1879 when the first alliance of World War 1 was formed. The dual alliance was signed by Austria-Hungary and Germany on October 7, 1879. This treaty promised that these two countries would aid each other in case of an attack by Russia, or in the event that Russia aided another power at war with Austria-Hungary or…

in the “Powder Keg of Europe”, the tensions that have already been growing between Austria-Hungary and Serbia before the start of WWI, eventually led to the start of a war between many major powers of the world. This “spark” is commonly known as the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand. Ferdinand was the heir to the Austro-Hungarian throne and was murdered by Gavrilo Princip, a Bosnian Serb citizen of Austria-Hungary and member of the Black Hand movement, a group considered by many as…

empire, but then Serbia gained independence from the ottoman Empire in 1815 and then its biggest fear was annexation by the Austrian-Hungarian Empire. Serbs all they wanted is for the country to become all slavic and their ally russia supported them. Austria-Hungary did not approve due to the vast slavic population they already have. The Austrian-Hungarians were scared that if they permit that the serbs would rebel. therefore they annexed the 2 countries serbia wanted which were bosnia and…

This is the war were the deaths went over 10 million people. This is the war where more than sixty million troops were mobilized. This is World War One. Among the vast number of reasons that causes World War One, I believe that the most significant reason, and the reason that it escalated to such a vast war, is because of all the alliance between countries, An alliance system between two countries is where there is a formal agreement or treaty between two or more nations to cooperate for…

The author of the source, Gary Sheffield, believes that Germany was completely aware that, with their actions and decisions, they would be creating a major war. Sheffield uses case studies such as Germany’s alliance with Austria and the fact that Germany broke a French-Russian alliance to support his view. As well as this, Sheffield states that WWI was utterly and completely Germany’s fault as he states that Britain, Russia and France’s stance in the war was completely defensive, and so, they…

1914 and carried on for 4 long years. World War One was a very deadly war that left millions of soldiers dead. It was a contention between the Allied Powers (France, Russia, Britain, Italy and the United States), and the Central Powers (Germany, Austria Hungary and the Ottoman Empire). The three fundamental driver of the war were the death of Archduke Franz Ferdinand, across the board militarism and imperialism. The first cause of World War One took place on June 28, 1914.

were The Triple Alliance, which consisted of Germany, Italy and Austria-Hungary and The Triple Entente, which consisted of France, Britain and Russia. The Triple Entente were later called, the Allies. Germany, Austria-Hungary and the Ottoman Empire later joined to create what's called the Central Powers. The alliance system was even more complex due to secret treaties, for instance Russia would help Serbia if they were attacked by Austria-Hungary and Italy had a treaty with France stating they…

Germany was only supporting our ally just like Russia was with Serbia. At this point when the war broke out, many countries knew the war was inevitable. The treaty of Versaille forced us to take blame as we were the last standing central power because Austria-Hungary had fallen. As for the letters where it says, the kaiser supports the war effort that was between two austrian diplomats so there is no solid evidence that the kaiser actually supported the war. The Kaiser actively didn’t seek out…
