Did Germany cause the war?
Who and what started World War 1? The verdict that I agree with of who started World War 1 is: “All of the major powers helped to start the war. They should share the blame.” I think this because one nation can not simply declare war at a country without knowing the consequences. If several countries declare war on each other then this is possible. This is my opinion but many people have other thoughts. World War One left 9,906,000 soldiers dead, 21,219,000 soldiers wounded and 7,750,000 soldiers missing.

In this case the assassination of the Archduke Franz Ferdinand from the Austro-Hungarian empire was the lighter. The first cause of World War One took place on June 28, 1914. Gavrilo Princip, a Bosnian Serb student, shot and killed Archduke Franz Ferdinand, the heir to the Austro-Hungarian throne, and his wife (Archduke Franz Ferdinand). Princip belonged to a group called the Black Hand, who wanted Serbia to be independent from Austria Hungary. Austria Hungary demanded Serbia to punish those responsible for the assassination. When Serbia failed to comply, Austria Hungary declared war on Serbia. Since Serbia was an ally of the Allied Powers, the Allied Powers declared war on Austria Hungary. This, in effect, meant a
