Answer 2

I did this stuff only briefly at school about 30 years ago so I am open to being corrected.

The assasination of Archduke Ferdinand who was the Austrian -Hungary leader. He was assassinated by a Serbian assasin, I believe the first attempt failed which was a bomb thrown at his carriage and the chap who threw it jumped into a river. (the bomb didn't explode and he was arrested) but another assasin shot the Archduke. Austria-Hungary declared war on Serbia and Germany backed them. The UK, France, Russia and others then declared war on Au-Hun and Germany. I do believe that Japan actually declared war on Germany as well, but I might be wrong.

I'm sorry I'm very rusty on this subject but hope it's of some help.

Answer 3

Before 1914, Europe was likened to a keg of gunpowder which needed only a single spark to set it off. It was a complicated system of imperial alliances which was ready to make war at the slightest provocation. And if not for the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand in 1914, it is most likely that something else eventually would have provided to spark to ignite the powder keg.
