During World War I, Russia and Germany were adversaries due to a complex web of alliances and national interests. Russia supported Serbia following the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand, which was viewed as a direct threat by Germany, an ally of Austria-Hungary. Additionally, Russia's desire to expand its influence in Eastern Europe clashed with Germany's ambitions, leading to increased tensions. This animosity was further fueled by nationalistic sentiments and military mobilizations that drew both nations into the war.
Prior to World War I, Germany and Russia did not ally with each other. Instead, they were part of opposing alliances; Germany was a key member of the Triple Alliance with Austria-Hungary and Italy, while Russia was part of the Triple Entente alongside France and the United Kingdom. Their conflicting interests, particularly in Eastern Europe, contributed to the tensions that led to the war.
Germany and Japan were allies during World War 2. They were not at war with each other.
Germany, Austria-Hungary, and The Ottoman Empire were friendly, and known as the "Central Powers". The UK, US, France, Russia, Serbia, and Italy were friendly and known as the "Allied Powers."
Germany, Italy, and Austria-Hungary signed a treaty to help each other if any of them got into a war. Britain, France, and Russia had a simular agreement to defend eachother from Germany, Italy, and Austria-Hungary. That basically divided Europe into 2 teams. So when Austria-Hungary attacked Serbia who was an ally of Russia everyone was dragged into the war.
A: Japan and Russia both claimed the same territory in northern Asia B: Britain, France, and Germany competed for colonies in Africa and Asia C: Germany feared the rise of communism in Russia and France D: Britain and Germany each wanted to gain control of France.
Germany and Russia
Russia and Germany had promised each other full cooperation before the start of WWII
Germany and Russia
Italy and Japan had agreements to join with Germany in WW2.Some other countries also assisted Germany in attacking Russia as they were fearful of such a powerful neighbour. These included Finland, Romania, Hungary and Bulgaria.
Germany, Austria/Hungary, and Italy by the Triple Alliance!!
Germany signed a Non-Aggression act with The Russia Federation, or Russia. The act meant that the two countries would never fight or partake in war against each other. However it was violated by Germany when they attacked Russia in World War II.
Signed so Germany and Russia would not attack each other.

No, the US joined the allied forces. Some parts of Europe were against each other (eg Britain & Germany)
Britain and France sees both Russia and Germany as potential threats ,after the Russian revolution Russia was hitting hard in world politics and economy so Britain and France hoped for a typical war between Russia and Germany (as Germany was becoming the world superpower ).Their was that If Russia And Germany could collide one would destroy another and there will be at least one enemy wipped out or weekend and would be easy to handle,this strategy was called as satisfying spree but unfortunately Russia and Germany came under an agreement not to attack each other ,that's why France and Britain refuses the Russian overtures for alliance though they gave (as announced) their full support to Russia when Russia managed to stop Germany's progress in Stalingrad .
It was not necessarily all Germany's fault that World War 1 started. It was collectively the fault of Germany, Russia, and Serbia for being unreasonable when dealing with each other.
