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.
The crisis in the Balkans that contributed to the outbreak of World War I primarily involved Serbia, Austria-Hungary, and the Ottoman Empire. The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria by a Bosnian Serb nationalist in June 1914 escalated tensions between Serbia and Austria-Hungary. This event triggered a complex web of alliances and conflicts, drawing in other nations like Russia, which supported Serbia, and Germany, which backed Austria-Hungary. Ultimately, these intertwined national interests and rivalries set the stage for the wider conflict of World War I.
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.
World War I began with the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria-Hungary on June 28, 1914, by a Serbian nationalist. This event triggered a series of diplomatic crises, leading Austria-Hungary to issue an ultimatum to Serbia. When Serbia's response failed to satisfy Austria-Hungary, it declared war on July 28, 1914. The conflict quickly escalated as alliances between major powers, including Germany, Russia, and France, drew multiple nations into a full-scale war.
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 :)
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.
