How long was the Pax Britannica?

Pax Britannica's start and end is debateable but its start is generally considered to be in 1815 at the end of the Napoleonic Wars at the Congress of Vienna and lasted until the outbreak of the First World War in 1914. This era was the era of Britain's Imperial Century where it had unchallenged militarial, economic and industrial dominance with dominance over international relations for 100 years. This period is considered by some to be the period that Britain was a Hyper-power (a state dominant of all others with no apparent challenge; i.e. one step above a superpower). But long story cut short Pax Britannica lasted from 1815-1914. So a century.

How many wars before 1914?

Before 1914, there were numerous wars and conflicts, but it's difficult to specify an exact number due to varying definitions of what constitutes a war. Major conflicts included the Napoleonic Wars (1803-1815), the American Civil War (1861-1865), the Franco-Prussian War (1870-1871), and the Balkan Wars (1912-1913), among many others. Additionally, there were countless smaller conflicts and colonial wars around the world. Overall, the period saw hundreds of wars and skirmishes across different regions.


World war l was an extension of the many European wars that had been fought betwee 1815 and 1914?

No. There were hardly any European wars between 1815 and 1914. 1815 brought an end to the Napoleonic Wars, and centuries of almost constant warfare before that. The brilliant Austrian foreign minister, Metternich, led the peace talks which were held in Vienna in 1815. So well were European affairs adjusted that almost a century of near-total peace followed. The peace settlement became known as the "Concert of Vienna", so well were matters orchestrated. A balance of power was established between the squabbling European nations which made this peaceful period possible. The one major exception was the Franco-Prussian War. In 1815, Germany did not exist. Where Germany is today were dozens of Germanic States - some fairly large, others mere city-states. Germany was united into a single nation under the guidance of the Prussian Foreign Minister, Bismarck. France immediately picked a fight and started a war with the new nation of Germany, and promptly lost. The existence of this new nation, Germany, had not been allowed for in the Concert of Vienna, and its very existence threw the balance of power in Europe out of kilter. This circumstance, and the French burning desire for revenge from having lost the Franco-Prussian War, ultimately led to WWI. (There were also several wars in the Balkans just before WWI, which helped to whet Serbian nationalism, creating the atmosphere in which it seemed like a good idea to assassinate the heir to the throne of the Hapsburg Empire.)
