MANIA, an acronym for Militarism, Alliances, Nationalism, Imperialism, and Assassination, encapsulates the key factors that contributed to the outbreak of World War I. Militarism led to an arms race and a culture of military planning, while complex alliances created a web of commitments that drew multiple nations into conflict. Nationalism fueled tensions and rivalries, particularly in the Balkans, where imperial ambitions clashed. The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand in 1914 acted as the immediate catalyst, triggering a series of events that escalated into a full-scale war.
