For the record, Economic alliances HELP nations stay in peace together.
All the wars (such as World War 2/ Iraq War) started with economic reason behind it( the World War 2 was due to Germany falling into a depression while Iraq War was for the US to sieze the oil production.)
If they are economically dependant (in an alliance), then it is less likely that they would go to war since they are depending on each other to survive.

alliances :)
Russia was the first allied participant in World War One.
Nations presently and have traditionally formed alliances for several reasons. They want to have an assurance that they will have aid during any war or battles and they want to create a bilateral trade system.
Alliances were made. Friendly nations became the enemy.
The countries went to war because they all had alliances and had no choice. The Alliances were made for protection, and if one country needed help the other country had to fight with them.
Political and economic rivalries were central to the tensions that ultimately sparked World War I. European nations, driven by nationalism and competition for colonies, sought to assert their power and influence, leading to a web of alliances and hostilities. The arms race and militarization further escalated these rivalries, as countries prepared for potential conflicts to protect their interests. When the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand occurred, these underlying tensions quickly ignited into a full-scale war, as nations were drawn in by their alliances and the desire to assert their dominance.
there were many international treaties that required nations to to agree to collective defense if attacked. Therefore, once the fighting began, many nations became involved since they had to under their treaty agreements

According to Wheeler, the causes of the war stemmed from a combination of political tensions, economic rivalries, and social unrest. Nationalism and imperial ambitions exacerbated conflicts among nations, while economic competition over resources and markets intensified hostilities. Additionally, unresolved grievances and alliances contributed to the escalation of tensions that ultimately led to war.
The great depression of the 1930's influenced the power and alliances of the nations involved in WW2.
