To specify Germany did not start World War 1.
The is "many" by that I mean that it was caused by more than 1 country. but what i do know is that Franz Ferdinad was assassinated in Sarajevo on June 28, 1914 by a group of Serbian nationalists. This event began the spark between Serbia and the Austro-Hungarian governments. On July 26, 1914, the Austro-Hungarian officials issued an ultimatum on the Serbian government containing five major concessions. Once the time limit on the ultimatum had ended, Austro-Hungary now declared war on Serbia.
Germany supported Austro-Hungary in the war effort while Russia supported Serbia. Germany therefore declared war on Russia on August 1, 1914 and on their ally, France. this is pretty much what started it. but in my own perspective "Serbia" is the one to blame.
No, it was not. The actual event that precipitated the war was the assassination of Archduke Ferdinand, heir to the Austrian throne, in Sarajevo at the hands of a Serbian assassin. However, even if this had not occurred, the great powers probably would have gone to war with each other anyway due to the influence of unchecked nationalism in all great European countries, massive military build-up, and the system of alliances. So in that sense Germany helped start the war, but only as much as Great Britain, France, Austria, and Russia did. NO! The world war started when the Archduke of Austria was murdered. Suspicision arose from there.
They didn't. They were only half or even less of the cause of ww1. It was black hand, an organization inside Germany that assassinated Franz Ferdinand, that knew they would start a political up roar. But none of this would have happend if Austro-Hungary had been so opressive. Technicaly its Austro-Hungarys fault. Germany should not have messed everything up for itsself and gone to war with France. It was just a matter of time before war broke out.
No, Germany was. They wanted power.
AnswerNo France did not start WW1. It started of with the assasination of Archduke Ferdinand who was killed by Gavrilo Princip who was part of the Serbian terrorist group called the "Black Hand" in a town call Sarajevo,which was in Austria Hungary. So Austria-Hungary sent Serbia an ultimatum which was an order from one country's govenment to Another Country's govenment or face war. Serbia accpeted the first two but they did not accpet the last order which was to help get rid of the "Black Hand" terrorist group. So Austria-Hungary declared war on Serbia.In a way France did start it, and the causes, grudges and bitterness go all the way back to the Napoleonic wars.
Germany did not start ww1. archduke Ferdinand was assassinated and Serbia arrested the assasin, austro Hungary asked them to deport him and they refused so they invaded and then more and more countries got involved, Germany was only about the sixth country to get involved.
Austria, before attacking Serbia, gave them an ultimatum. The Serbs accepted the ultimatum except for one minor point, but Austria-Hungary attacked anyway, sparking off World War I. So most of the blame for the start of the war should lie with Austria-Hungary's leaders.
Tensions had been growing before the war, more or less splitting Europe into two factions. Kaiser Wilhelm of Germany was afraid that his country would be invaded in a conflict, so made a lunge for France and Russia while supporting his ally Austria-Hungary.
