My Project Is About World War I

World War I was a tragic episode in European history. As with most wars, there were some causes that led to this event. A few of these causes were militarism, alliances, and imperialism. The first spark of the war was on June 28, 1914 when the Archduke Franz Ferdinand and his wife were assassinated by a Serbian nationalist group called the Black Hand. The Austrian leaders demanded an apology from Serbia, they got upset and Russia said they would help Serbia. With no apology and the threat of Russia, on June 28 Austria-Hungary declared war on them; Russia in return declared war on Austria-Hungary. Germany declared war on Russia, France on both Germany and Austria-Hungary. Finally Britain had joined France and Russia, then all of Europe was at war.

World War One started in 1914 and ended in 1918. There were a variety of underlying causes of World War One. Starting with the assassination of Archduke was a cause of the war. Also the alliance system caused many problems in the long run of the war. Another cause that was big was that the people started to believe that war was everything in life (DBQ Project Essay Background). Another big cause of the war was, countries building up their armies and navies, so they could be ready to attack at any given moment (DBQ Project Doc 7).

World War I, also known as the first World War, or the Great War, was a global war originating in Europe the began on the 28th of July 1914 and lasted until the 11th of November 1918. World War I was a war that was fought between two sides with a few of the World’s greatest Nations of that time. The two sides were Triple Entente which included Britain, France, and Russia, and the Triple Alliance which was consisted of the countries Germany, Austria-Hungary, and Italy. World War I left a mark on history as we know it, what could have possibly led to that war?, What were the underlying causes of World War I?. The major causes of “The Great War” or WWI consist of four long-term causes and one short-term cause. The common acronym that’s used for the four long-term causes to help students remember the causes of WWI is M.A.I.N; the acronym stands for Militarism, Alliances, Imperialism, and Nationalism,and the short-term cause The Assassination of the ArchDuke Franz Ferdinand at Sarajevo on the 28th of June 1914. To put all of this in a simpler way the five major causes of WWI was Militarism, Alliances, Imperialism, Nationalism, and the assassination of the ArchDuke Franz Ferdinand. Each of topics played a significant role in the reasons why WWI would begin.

World War I took place in the year of 1914 till the year of 1919. The war went on for 4 years. What triggered the start of World War I was the assassination of Australia’s archduke, Francis Ferdinand. The Black Hand group did not want Archduke Francis to be ruler of their land. Francis’ assassin led Europe’s stability to collapse. Europe desired to build empires and form new alliances. The Allies were the victors. There is an estimation of 10 million military soldiers that died and 7 million civilian deaths. 21 million were wounded and nearly 8 million either went missing or were imprisoned.

In conclusion, World War One was a rather eventful war, there were many things that set things in motion. The main causes of World War one were militarism, alliances, imperialism, nationalism, and certain events that turned countries against each other. World War one serves as a reminder to us that with power comes responsibility, and if used wrong, it can cause more harm than good. It also shows us that all conflict that is caused between

     World War I was the result of leaders' aggression towards other countries which was supported by the rising nationalism of the European nations. Economic and imperial competition and fear of war prompted military alliances and an arms race, which further escalated the tension contributing to the outbreak of war. One cause of the World War was militarism, which is a policy in which military preparedness is of primary significance to a situation. Another cause of the World War was nationalism. Nationalism is the pride and devotion form one towards his/her country. It played a great part in the causes of World War 1 because citizens wanted to stand up for their country, and fight for them. The third

World War I, a war that started out locally in Europe between Austria-Hungary and Serbia that later ended up including thirty two different nations. This war has been around for almost a century and yet the causes of it are still being debated. There are many different scenarios that have been considered. Some of the key reasons that were believed to have instigated WWI were nationalism, imperialism, militarism, and an arrangement of treaties. Also the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand was believed to be one of the immediate causes.

The First World War started in 1914 and ended in 1918. The causes of World War I were militarism, alliances between European countries, imperialism, nationalism and the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand (Keegan, 2014). Primarily, it may be cited, that its cause was a struggle between the Central Powers (Austria-Hungary, Germany and Italy) and the Allied Powers (France, Great Britain and Russia) over the expansion of Serbia into the Balkans.

World War I is a war that took the lives of more than 10 million soldiers and over 7 million civilians, and wounded 10 million more. It was a conflict between the Axis powers, Germany, Austria, Hungary, and Turkey, and the Allies, France, England, Russia, and Italy. After the war ended the leaders met at the Versailles Palace just outside of Paris for a treaty to settle future disputes and avoid war. The treaty was finally signed on June 28, 1919 and because Germany was responsible for war damageous and costs, they were angry and humiliated. The Treaty of Versailles lead to World War II through territorial losses, military restrictions, economic war reparations, and war guilt.

World War I had occured between July 1914 and November 11,1918. The war had been caused by the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand. When a Serbian terrorist had drove by shooting him, and his family. Then when Austria-Hungary demanded reparations (amends), they declared war against Serbia. Militarism, Alliances, Imperialism and Nationalism had lead to the cause of World War I.

After four years of trying to stay alive and killing people, World War I ended in November 11, 1918. There was an event that triggered the war to break out on June 28, 1914. The event that triggered the war was the assassination of Archduke Franz Fordincrd, that was Austrian. The Austria-Hungary gave the Serbian two demands to follow but they did not want to. The first one was to stop the group that assassinated him, and to let Austria-Hungary to send police into Serbia to investigate. The Austria-Hungary accused Serbia for the assassination of Fordincrd and his wife (Document 3). The causes of World War I is Militarism, Alliances, Imperialism, and Nationalism.

In 1914 there was a World War 1 that was also called The Great War and ended in 1919. The three main impacts and cause of world war 1 was the Alliance (“association”), Imperialism (“power differences”), and Militarism (“Weapon spending”). The countries that were involved Germany, Austria-Hungary, and the Ottoman Empire (“so-called Central Powers”) the countries against Great Britain, France, Russia, Italy, and Japan (“the Allied Powers”).

One of the biggest events that had led to World War I is the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand. A Serbian civilian killed Archduke Franz Ferdinand. The Austria-Hungarians were outraged by the assassination and felt like this was a call for war. However before the war started, the German decided to take the side of the Austria-Hungarians and the Russians, French and British (The Triple Entente) decided to take side of the Serbians. The German’s attacked Belgium to set off the French and infuriate them and this led to the World

A. Attention step: the change in the context and trend of war in terms of ferocity of the weapons and the increase in human/nations participation was occasioned by the industrial revolution and the French revolution.

World War I was one of the worst wars to ever happen in history. The Great War lasted from 1914 to 1918 with up 37 million casualties. The war was fought between Russia, France, Germany, Austria-Hungary, Great Britain, the U.S. and many others in Europe. The spark that led to the war is said to be the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria in late June of 1914. But the assassination is not a direct cause at all. There are some causes that lead to World War I. A couple of the causes that led to one of the greatest wars to occur in history are alliances, imperialism, and nationalism.
