∙ 10y agoGermany, Austria and - in the end - the Ottoman Empire as the so-called "Axis" countries on the one side, and the Russian Empire, France and Britain and in the end the US and Italy as the "Allied" countries. Other countries were unwillingly involved because they were overrun or because their country became a battlefield, like Belgium.
It is called the first "world' war because technically, all the warring countries' many colonies and posessions were automatically involved in the war as well. The name "World War 1" is by the way a later invention: at the time and until after 1940/1945 it was called - and sometimes still is, especially in Great Britain - the Great War. To give you an idea of all the countries/colonies technically if not actively involved in WW 1, here is the complete list. It's seperated by continent/area :
