How was Austria-Hungary affected by World War 1?

Answer 1

Eric 1 of Austria-Hungary was assinated by a Serbian nationalist. this started a conflict between the Serbs and Austrians.The Germans came to the aid of their Austrian cousins, just as the Russians came to the aid of the Serbs.This started a war between The Germans and the Russian Empire.Germany knew that Russia had formed an alliance with France, and that the French were obligated to enter the war on the side of the Russians against Germany.Since the Germans knew they couldn't fight a two-front war and win,and since France- that had a more mobile and modern army than the Russians posed the greater threat-Germany invaded France first.On their way to invading France, the Germans took a short-cut through Belgium, without the Belgian's permission.The British could not let the Germans get away with this, and declared war against Germany and it's allies. From there we we're off to the races, and it all began with a head-of-state being assinated by a radical.

AnswerAfter the assassination of franz ferdenand (an Austrian duke and heir to the throne) a/h offered an ultimatum to Serbia ,which, in the extent of its demand that the assassins be brought to justice effectively nullified Serbia's sovereignty. Austria-Hungary's expectation was that Serbia would reject the remarkably severe terms of the ultimatum, thereby giving her a pretext for launching a limited war against Serbia. thus causing the large chain of decalrations of war.

Answer 2

The main role that the Ausrian-Hungary Emipre played in WW1 was the most significant. It chaged the world after the war because they just found a most plausible answer they could find to start a war. After the alliances were formed with Germany and Italy they only had imperailistic ideals. Thus brang forth the the revolution of WW1. It's simple to see why its all started in the first place. Every country wanted more power to call there own and no one country would back down in there quest.
