Alliance System: alliances were forming (the triple alliance and the triple entente) and the continent was splitting in half. 3. Imperialism: the expansion of one's power, like Britain's power over Canada, many countries were gaining control over other countries. 4. Nationalism: all the countries were very proud of themselves and wanted power. The Spark: In June 1914, Archduke Ferdinand of Austria-Hungary was parading through the country when a Serbian terrorist from the Blue hand shot both the arch duke and dutchess.
