Best Answer

Austria_Hungary had an alliance with Germany, and actually started WW1 by invading Serbia in 1914. They were an unstable empire, and were worried about collapsing like the Ottoman Empire. For this reason they really wanted to crush Serbia, who were gaining power and trying to start a greater Slavic State - which a lot of people living in A-H would have joined. Germany gave them military backing, and they were keen to fight in a war and regain some power. They were thought of as Germany's only reliable ally.
