Long Term Causes

Militarism was glorification of the military. More money was put into the military to increase arms and power of each country. This made each country ready and willing to fight one another.

Alliances were agreements between two or more countries to defend each other from any attack on one another from countries outside of the alliance. If any one country was attacked the other members of the alliance was automatically forced into the war as well, even if they did not want to fight. This is why the war was on such a large scale

Imperialism Built resentment between the powers. Not every country got the land they wanted or their colonies had been taken from them by other countries and some countries got none at all.

Nationalism was pride and devotion for one country. All of the countries citizens were ready to fight in order to protect their homeland from invaders and help their country become a world power.
