Bismark wanted to isolate France, as well as expand Germany's boundaries, and they wanted to strengthen their army.
The European alliance system of the early 1900s ultimately failed to achieve its goal of maintaining peace and stability in Europe. Instead, it contributed to heightened tensions and rivalries, culminating in the outbreak of World War I in 1914. The complex web of alliances, particularly between the Triple Alliance and the Triple Entente, created a situation where a localized conflict could escalate into a full-scale war. Thus, rather than preventing conflict, the alliance system became a catalyst for one of the deadliest wars in history.
Taking into consideration World War I from start to finish, the clear leaders of the Triple Alliance (or, Triple Entente) were the nations of France and Great Britain. Imperial Russia was another major nation in the Alliance until being knocked out late in the war, while the United States became a major "associate" in 1917.
The Triple Alliance was formed by the city-states of Tenochtitlan, Texcoco, and Tlacopan in the 15th century. This alliance allowed them to dominate much of central Mexico and expand their influence and territory. Together, they established the Aztec Empire, which became one of the most powerful civilizations in Mesoamerica.
World War I became a world war due to a combination of factors: the complex system of alliances that entangled major powers, including the Triple Entente and the Triple Alliance, which escalated regional conflicts into a global war. Nationalism heightened tensions as countries sought to assert their dominance, while militarism led to an arms race that prepared nations for large-scale conflict. Additionally, imperial ambitions fueled competition over colonies and resources. Finally, the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand acted as the catalyst that triggered these underlying tensions into a full-scale war.

To isolate France
Germany, under the leadership of Otto Van Bismarck, had won a stunning victory over France in the Franco-Prussian War. To deter France from seeking revenge, Bismarck pursued policies to isolate France and gain allies for Germany. Bismarck set into motion an alliance with Austria-Hungary, whose expansion into the Balkans conflicted with Russian policies. In 1879, Germany and Austria-Hungary joined in a defensive military alliance. Now, Italy was enraged at France, whose seizure of Tunisia in 1881 thwarted Italian military objectives. In 1882, Italy agreed to a defensive military alliance with Germany and Austria-Hungary. This became known as the Triple Alliance.
