The countries got involved in World War 1 due to a combination of factors, including territorial disputes, alliances, militarism, and a desire for power and dominance. The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria-Hungary by a Serbian nationalist was the immediate trigger for the war, but underlying tensions and rivalries among the major powers had been building for years. Ultimately, the complex web of alliances, nationalist ambitions, and a desire to protect their own interests drew countries into the conflict.
