  • Actually,most Historians believe the Start of World War 1 Began in 1907 when an Alliance was Formed by France,Britain,& Russia called "The Triple Entente"...This was Done to Counter an Alliance Formed by Germany,Austria-Hungary,& Italy.Even though"Italy" (traitorous,fascist pigs,who never heard of the word HONOR)Had a Secret Pact with France.It was Pretty Much inevitable that World War 1 was Going to Happen,The Question was a Matter of When,& that "WHEN" was the Assassination of"Franz Ferdinand"

  • I think that it was Probably the Niggers who Started World War One...

  • I think the Serbs started this war because of their nationalistic views against austria-hungary. in 1914, when the assassination was committed, Austria-hungary declared war.

  • It began when Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria was assassinated by Bosnian-Serb Gavrilo Princip in Sarajevo.

  • I started when a Bosnian-Serb Gavrilo Princip assassinated the Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria in Sarajevo.

  • @martynrobin121 besides,germany did ask belgium for safe passage of her troops. belgium declined. germany would have a major strategic advantage if they invaded france through belgium,rather than their own border.

  • @martynrobin121 germany didnt start the great war,the austro-hungarian empire did. russia started to mobilize her army after the austro-hungarian empire invaded serbia,which posed a huge threat to germany. germany only fulfilled her obligation as an ally. if i'm not mistaken,the germans did offer france a chance to stay neutral. they declined.

    PS-britain was partly responsible for the ottoman empire siding with germany.

  • @vomit49894 keep the dollar, you will need it for getting a history book.

  • @Mehranrokh I'll buy that for a dollar.

  • THE BRITISH PROVOCATION STARTED THE WORLD WAR 1
