Best Answer

WW1 actually started as a conflict between the small country of Serbia and Austria-Hungary because Serbia supported the assasination of the Archduke or Austria-Hungary. Because Serbia was in an alliance with Britain, it had an obligation to enter the war, along with many other countries that entered on both sides of the intricate system of alliances that made up Europe and caused World War 1.
