Serbia declared war on Germany in response to Germany's support for Austria-Hungary after the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand in 1914. The conflict escalated as Austria-Hungary issued an ultimatum to Serbia, leading to a series of alliances being activated. Serbia's declaration was part of the broader outbreak of World War I, where nationalistic tensions and mutual defense pacts drew multiple countries into the conflict. Ultimately, Serbia's resistance to Austro-Hungarian demands aligned them against Germany, which had allied with Austria-Hungary.
