Alliances in World War I were formal agreements between countries to support each other in times of conflict, significantly shaping the war's dynamics. The primary alliances were the Triple Entente, consisting of France, Russia, and Britain, and the Triple Alliance, comprising Germany, Austria-Hungary, and Italy (though Italy later joined the Entente). These alliances escalated the conflict after the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand in 1914, as countries were drawn into war due to their commitments to one another. The interconnected nature of these alliances transformed a regional conflict into a global war.
