. A nation might turn to military leaders and Extreme Nationalists during a time of crisis because these leaders have a far greater sense of nationalism than government leaders or politicians. This sense of nationalism would inspire the people and make them far more likely to get through the crisis at hand.

* The Balkan Crisis * Alliances * Arms race * Militarism * Imperialism * Nationalism
The two crises of the early 20th century, particularly leading up to World War I, were deeply interconnected through imperialism, militarism, and nationalism. Imperialism fueled competition among European powers for colonies, intensifying rivalries and fostering alliances like the Triple Alliance and Triple Entente. Militarism contributed to an arms race, as nations built up their military capabilities in response to perceived threats, escalating tensions. Nationalism stirred fervent loyalty to one's nation, often at the expense of others, which propelled conflicts and alliances, ultimately culminating in the war.
There were many things happening in Europe in 1914 that led to the climate of crisis. The region was trying to operate under secret diplomacy with the United States. They were trying to militarize their countries and speed up the arms race. There was also unrest due to colonialism.

World War I broke out in Europe primarily due to a complex web of alliances, militarism, nationalism, and imperialism. The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria-Hungary in June 1914 triggered a crisis that escalated due to these alliances, leading to the mobilization of major powers. Countries were bound by treaties to defend one another, resulting in a rapid escalation from a regional conflict to a full-scale war involving multiple nations. Additionally, rising nationalist sentiments and competition for colonies heightened tensions among European countries.
Before World War I, tensions in Europe were heightened by a complex web of alliances, militarism, nationalism, and imperialism. The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria-Hungary in 1914 sparked a crisis, exacerbating existing rivalries, particularly between the Triple Alliance (Germany, Austria-Hungary, and Italy) and the Triple Entente (France, Russia, and Britain). Nationalistic fervor, particularly in the Balkans, along with colonial competition and military buildups, created an environment ripe for conflict, ultimately culminating in the outbreak of war.
Forming alliances increased the likelihood f war in Europe by pledging to go to each others aid in times of crisis, agreeing to protect smaller countries alllied to them, and creating a balance of power.
Cold War Alliances
World War I erupted due to a complex interplay of factors, including militarism, alliances, imperialism, and nationalism. The immediate trigger was the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria-Hungary in June 1914, which set off a chain reaction of mobilizations and declarations of war among the major European powers. The existing alliances pulled countries into the conflict, escalating it from a regional crisis to a full-scale global war. Additionally, underlying tensions and rivalries contributed to an environment ripe for conflict.
Imperialism played a significant role in creating the tensions that led to World War I, as the major European powers competed for colonies and resources, which heightened rivalries and fostered distrust. The race for empire not only fueled militarism but also created complex alliances that entangled nations in conflicts over imperial interests. While not the sole cause, imperialism was a critical factor in a broader context of nationalism, militarism, and entangled alliances that made the war appear inevitable once a crisis, such as the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand, occurred. Thus, while the war was not predetermined, imperialism significantly contributed to the conditions that made it likely.
