The four M.A.I.N causes of WWI are known to be Militarism, Alliances, Imperialism and Nationalism. Militarism built up the armies in Europe, meaning more weapons to use and more soldiers to use them. Alliances dragged many countries into what would have otherwise been a mini-conflict between Austria and Serbia. Imperialism gave the combatants in Europe colonies all over the world that got involved making it a world war. And nationalism made everyone think their country was the best and made them want to fight. Different people blame different combinations of the four for causing the war.
