Causes Of WWI


World War One was a deadly war that happened. New army equipment were created for this war. Machine Guns, Poison Gas, Tanks and more. World War One also started to use trenches. Alot of people died during this war, there are many causes that started this war. One Very Important Causes that moslty started everything thing was the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand On June 28, 1914. He was visiting Sarajevo. The Austria had many problems with Serbia, which they blamed them and this is what mostly triggered the War to start. When Austria demand war on Serbia then their alliance came in. Austria had Germany while Russia has with Serbia. And then so many countries came to this war. The war that started in Serbia and Austria changed in a chain reaction. Another important causes that happened during World War One was Nationalism. Nationalism is mostly the love of a country. This is mostly like racist was happening you can say. Because each country thought their country was the best. A lot of strong nationalist movements happened. Their were people demanding that they were the best. People would hang up posters and have speeches. And if another country would agree with them then they would form some kind of a alliance together. So they would have each other back with for example they went to war. Last but not least another important causes was Militarism. Militarism is moslty based of a government having a strong and huge military army and ready for war any time. During this a lot of new military technology was built. Like I was saying in the beginning machine guns were built and poison gas, tank and much more. Europe's military was very strong in every country. But this all caused a huge amount of Death. So these were the most important causes that caused World War 1 to happened.
