Who wanted to invade Serbia in World War 1?
The Austro-Hungarian Empire.In June 1914, the heir to the Austrian throne was murdered in Sarajevo, by Bosnian nationalists- Bosnia was ruled by the Austro-Hungarian Empire at the time, and Sarajevo is Bosnia's capital city. These nationalists were believed by the Austrian government to have been supported by intelligence agents from nearby Serbia, a country Austria already didn't like (and vice versa). Serbians and Bosnians are related ethnic groups, so Serbia (supposedly) wanted to help their Bosnian cousins break away from Austria.After the assassination, Austria issued a list of demands to the Serbian government, saying that if Serbia did not accept allof them, then Austria would attack. Serbia accepted all but one (from what I understand, the Serbian constitution at the time forbade them from accepting it), and Austria declared war on Serbia, which began World War I.
