(a bit like spys)- all people and groups involved in the assassination to have legal action taken on them (go to court) and the representatives were to take part in the judging- Serbia to tell the people that they did not agree with the propaganda and terrorism against A-H and to warn their people that they would be punished in the future.- explanations given to A-H saying why nasty things had been said against the A-H monarchyAnd they wanted all this done in 48 hours.to check the reliability of this; go to www.firstworldwar.com/source/austrianultimatum.htm
Why did the assassination of archduke Ferdinand lead to a European conflict?
Archduke Ferdinand and his wife were assassinated by a Serbian Nationalist acting on his own. As a result, Austria-Hungary declared war on Serbia.

What was the crime that led to the start of world war 1?

How did assassination of archduke franz Ferdinand and his wife trigger a world war?
Austria-Hungary had been given a blank cheque by Germany. this meant that Germany would support Austria-Hungary whatever happened. This meant that Austria-Hungary was looking for any excuse to start a war. following the assassination Austria-Hungary sent Serbia an ultimatum which they could never agree to. therefore Austria-Hungary and Germany started a fight with Serbia. this is where the alliance system kicks in. russia wanted access to the black sea. the best way for this was through Serbia. this meant Russia wanted to help Serbia.another reason it wanted to help was both countries were of slavic origin. then France backed up Russia due to the triple entente. Britain didnt get involved until Germany put the schlieffen plan into action whereby they invaded belgium first. Britain had made the London treaty in 1833 which meant it would protect belgium in return for it's neutrality.
Did alliances cause conflict among the great powers?
