World War I, also known as the Great War, was primarily fought due to a complex web of alliances, nationalism, Imperialism, and militarism among European powers. The immediate trigger was the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria-Hungary in 1914, which set off a chain reaction of alliances that led to a full-scale war. Countries like Germany, Austria-Hungary, and the Ottoman Empire faced off against the Allies, including France, Russia, and Britain, leading to widespread conflict across Europe and beyond. The war ultimately resulted in significant political and social changes, reshaping the world order.
