World War 1 was created by a series of events not just a man. However, the immediate cause for World War 1 was the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand, killed by Gavrilo Princip.
The Germans - by crossing into Belgium, whose neutrality had been guaranteed by Britain.
It is not quite clear why they felt so confident in doing so.
Some say they thought Britain was facing civil war because the trouble in Ulster, and would not be able to put an army in the field.
Also, too many of the German top brass had gone off sailing in the Baltic because of the fine weather, and some decisions were taken by quite junior officials.
The Kaiser confused the issue by boasting in public about his invincible troops, but confiding to a few close friends that he was privately terrified at the prospect of a European war, and certain that Germany would lose.

While China was invaded first, the man who began WWII was Adolf Hitler.
The man you mean is Stalin. He was the communist leader of the USSR in WW2. Lenin died before World War 2. Stalin was one of the Big 3 allied leaders. He was responsible for the victory of the eastern front in the European Theater. At the end of the war Stalin refused to let the countries he conquered to return to free democratic nations. He kept them and ruled over them with communism. He was the reason the Cold War started.
Time Travel man. B-)
The person who took Stalin's place after his death of a brain hemorrhage was Nikita Khrushchev. This man started the cold war with the United StatesNikita Khrushchev
The official cause of World War 1 is usually listed as the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand. He and his wife Sophie were fatally shot by Gavrilo Princip (a previous assassination attempt involved the throwing of a bomb, which is not technically a gun shot), and these shots may be considered those which started the War.

Most historians are agreed that the start of World War II was the German invasion of Poland on 1 September 1939. Adolf Hitler was the leader of Germany at the time so you could say that he started World War II.
