Austria-Hungary did not directly give anything to Serbia during World War I; rather, the conflict was sparked by tensions between the two nations.

This alliance was part of the broader Central Powers coalition that included Germany, Austria-Hungary, and later, the Ottoman Empire and Bulgaria, working together against the Allied Powers. This support was crucial in enabling Austria-Hungary to pursue its aggressive policies, ultimately leading to the outbreak of the war.
