Best Answer

As the prelude to and primary cause of World War I, the assassination of Archduke Ferdinand and his wife initiated a step-by-step outbreak of the war in several decisive ways. For one thing, it inflamed the nationalistic fervor of many European nations, which justified war as necessary for glory or at least security. For another thing, it activated the alliance-system in an unforeseen fashion: nations whose own integrity was not threatened by the results of the assassination soon declared war simply for the sake of honoring their alliance-agreements with other nations that had become involved.
