Causes Of World War 1

Mitiralism had a big impact on
how the war played out and even
came to be in the first place.

The great powers started
to create military resources
in order to protect themselves
and fight back. Germany had
a want of being a large power in
Europe so they enlarged their
resources to match up with Britain.

Through this, with mass amount
of materialism growing it created
France to arm themselves
in a needed attempt to maintain
the balance of power between them
and Germany. Then shorty
after came major controversy
which then slowly became war.

Countries with great strength
practiced imperialism from creating
colonies all over the world to
eventually develop empires.

Germany although had trouble
establishing itself as a imperial
power. Their colonies in Africa
fell short in comparison
economically wise compared to
the colonies in Britain. Germany
wasn't impressed by this. They had
an agressive pursuit of achieving
strong imperialism, which came into
conflict with others with imperial
power like Britain & France.

This conflict between the three
countries contributed to some
of the cause of war.

Alliances surprisingly made it much simpler
than you think for a country to be pulled
into the war. Reason being is that, members of an
alliance swore to protect each other if one
was to be in danger, then its allies would
also have to fight. Which created major
conflict between all the country's involved.

Examples of alliances during World War 1
were the Triple Alliance
(Germany, Austria-Hungary,Italy) and
the Triple Entente (France, Britain and Russia)

Bosnia was much involved with nationalism,
but in a much different and darker way.
Which majorly impacted the war. Through
nationalism Bosnia created a gang called
The Black Hand. This gang was willing to
do anything to achieve their nationalistic
goals. Even as bad as murdering the
archduke.

The black hand was responsible
for many murders across the nation,
but they were esspecially known
for as already stated the killing of
Archduke Franz Ferdnand. This
resulted in major controversy, not
only through Bosnia but in other
nations as well.
