Best Answer

The archduke of Austrohungary Franz Ferdinand was assassinated in Serbia. The Serbians arrested the assasin and Austrohungary asked Serbia to deport him. The Serbians refused, so Austrohungary invaded Serbia and Another Country got involved and another and so on until it finished up a world war.

The major cause of World War I was that all of the little alliances in Europe that all of its major powers were making finally caught up to them and led them to great conflicts. The two major alliances were the Central Powers (Germany, Austria-Hunary, and Italy) and the Triple Entente (United Kingdom, France, and Russia), which surprisingly enough holds the countries on either side of World War I; Germany, Austria-Hungary, and Italy VS. United Kingdom, France, and Russia.

Did the ending of World War I create the basis for World War 2?

Was Bolshevism primarily responsible for the start of World War I?

Bolshevism had nothing to do with the start of World War 1. The war was a confrontation between European great powers and wasn't a conflict of ideologies.
