World War I began primarily due to a complex web of alliances, militarism, Imperialism, and nationalism. The immediate catalyst was the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria-Hungary in June 1914, which triggered a series of diplomatic crises and mobilizations. Austria-Hungary's declaration of war on Serbia set off a chain reaction, leading to the involvement of multiple nations and the escalation into a global conflict.
