From the beginning of the occupation Austria-Hungary counted upon ultimately obtaining permanent possession. Serbia, however, continued to hope that the provinces, or at least such a portion of them as would give access to the Adriatic, would some day be to her. The crisis in 1908-1909 sprang from the fact that Serbia believed that she must prevent the consummation of annexation by Austria-Hungary or give up permanently her long-cherished hopes.
Soon after the proclamation of annexation Serbia called a part of the reserves to the colors and lodged a vigorous protest with the powers, demanding either a return to the status quo ante or compensations calculated to assure the independence and material progress of Serbia. Serbian newspapers demanded a strip of territory extending across Novi-Bazar and Bosnia-Herzegovina to the Adriatic. The Government of the Dual Monarchy refused to receive the Serbian protest. It denied that Serbia had any right to raise a question as to the annexation.
The immediate cause of the war was the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand, heir to the Austro-Hungarian throne, by Gavrilo Princip, a Bosnian Serb citizen of Austria-Hungary and member of the Black Hand. This group wanted to have an independent Serbia from Austria-Hungary.
It started with a conflict between Serbia and Austria-Hungary. Russia defended Serbia (they were allies), which caused Germany to aid Austria-Hungar as they were also allies. The rest followed suit by accompanying their allies. Basically, they were allied to the countries who originally had the conflict.
World War I was primarily ignited by the conflict between Austria-Hungary and Serbia. The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria-Hungary by a Serbian nationalist in June 1914 set off a chain reaction of alliances and tensions, leading to the broader conflict. Other nations quickly became involved due to existing alliances, escalating the war into a global conflict.
it was all because of alliances, if there wasn't any peace treaty's between any of the countries in ww1 none of it would of happened, it would of been a war between Serbia and Austria-Hungary, but when Austria-Hungary attack Serbia Russia had to jump in to help Serbia and when Russia attacked Austria-Hungary Germany had to jump in to help Austria-Hungary, and then when Germany went to attack France through Belgium, BEF (Britain) had to jump in to help Belgium and France, and later during the war America and Italy joined in. Sounds a bit confusing but I'm sure its right :)
It brought a lot of countries into conflict when normally only 2 nations were involved. When Austria-Hungary declared war on Serbia, Austria's allies, Germany and the Ottoman Empire, and Serbia's allies, Great Britain, France, and Russia, also joined the conflict, making it a continental war.
The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria in June 1914 served as the immediate catalyst for World War I, triggering a series of diplomatic crises. Following the assassination, Austria-Hungary issued an ultimatum to Serbia, which included demands that were intentionally severe and difficult for Serbia to accept fully. Serbia's partial acceptance of the ultimatum was deemed insufficient, leading Austria-Hungary to declare war on Serbia. This act set off a chain reaction of alliances and mobilizations, ultimately escalating into a full-scale global conflict.
Yes. Russia entered a regional conflict between Austria-Hungary and Serbia to protect its fellow Slavic nation.
Austria-Hungary did not directly give anything to Serbia during World War I; rather, the conflict was sparked by tensions between the two nations. The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria in June 1914 by a Bosnian Serb nationalist led Austria-Hungary to issue an ultimatum to Serbia. When Serbia's response was deemed unsatisfactory, Austria-Hungary declared war on Serbia, initiating the larger conflict of World War I.
Germany guaranteed Austria-Hungary its support in the conflict with Serbia.

Nationalism was a key factor in the Balkan crisis.The conflict between Serbia and Austria -Hungary was founded on the need of Serbs of Austria-Hungary . Russia, the mother of all slavs, intervened for Serbia while Germany , being in an alliance with Austria-Hungary supported them. This caused war between the two alliances.

Serbia partially accepted the ultimatum from Austria-Hungary but rejected some of the demands. This led to Austria-Hungary declaring war on Serbia, which ultimately sparked the beginning of World War I.
