World War 1 was a relatively even/mutal conflict. You're thinking of it from an American/Canadian/British/French perspective. If you were Austrian or German, you would think the Allies were the 'bad guys.'
Germany marched troops across France, which caused France to declare war on Germany and Britain to follow it. Britain and France were allies, so when one was in the war the other was as well. Also, once Britain declared war, all of its colonies were automatically at war as well (which included Canada.) But before that, Archduke Franz Ferdinand was assinated by a Bosnian Serb rebel. This caused Austria to move troops against the Bosnian/Serb/Yugoslav nation in an attempt at revenge. Then, Russia moved in to defend its ally (that Austria was invading.) Germany moblized troops after this as revenge for Russia moving troops. It was Austria's ally and didn't support the Russians/Bolsheviks who were about to adopt communism.
In the opinion of Britain and France, Germany went too far when it marched across France as well as just eastern Europe. In the opinion of the Germans, they were just defending a political ally, and were right to oppose Russia.
