World War one is the most important event that occured in 1914 that stayed memorable to a lot of people and impact their lives. Historians procalim that the war occured due to the four causes. Imperialism, nationalism, militarism and Alliances. People have different point of views, different opiniions of what led the outbreak of the war. In my mind militarism and alliances were positive causes of World War One but imperialism is the most significant.
Throughout Europe even in now days countries make agreements between them these pulls them into battle these is called Alliances. If a country was attacked and these country that was attacked had some agreement with another country then the allied countries will defend them. Alliances was a strong cause of WWI because of this events the Triple Alliance(1882), the Dual Alliance(1879), the Austria-Serbian Alliance(1881) , the Triple Entente(1914), Triple Entente(1907) the Anglo Russian Entente (1907) the Entente Cordiale (1904) and the Franco Russian Alliance (1894). The events that I will mention now are event that occurred before World War One they were some alliances between Russia and Serbia, Germany and Austria Hungary, France and Russia, Britain and France and Belgium and Japan with Britain. The story of these alliances during World War one was: Austria Hungary defeated Serbia, and because Russia had an alliance between Serbia, Russia defend Serbia. Later on Germany found out that Russia was making some secret movements so Germany declared war on Russia, after that France was against Germany and Austria Hungary. Germany defeated France involving Belgium which these caused the Britain to occur in the war. Japan, United Stades and Italy entered the war. We can see that Alliance was an important cause of WWI. Throughout these events we can see the outcome of the aggrements that had been made, the history before WWI between countries and how each country that had agreements between them helped each other during the war. We can see that alliances had an affect on imperialism but as well imperialism had an affect on Alliances. Alliance helped strong and not strong countries to become stronger. But this is also Imperialistic because these helps a strong country to have an agreement between another strong country, so they can work together.
Militarism is the army and military forces these is also a strong cause of WWI due to The Compention between Britain and Germany over the naval powers due to the plan between France and Germany. Some other Events which could support these event is the Draughtboard the German Naval, the Von Shiefflen Plan, the Crimean War and the Franco Prussian War. During World War One Germany was had the greatest military, so Great Britain and Germany had increased their navies. Germany's and Russia's militarism was very indluenced in policy that time and because of that these pushed the countries to attend in to the war.
Both France and Germany had very big armies But Britain and Germany fierce about their army. During that time British had introduced the Dreadnaught which was a battleship in 1906. After that the Germans had introdused their own battleships. Between Germany and Von Schilieffen their was a plan which was to attacked France through Belgium, but that was depended on weather Rusia will attack Germany. All these events go in one, Militarism is part of Impirialism because throught the preperation before the war countries were working together, first they had to conquer lands, other countries in order to pass to go to the country that they want.
I consider Impirialism as the most significant event in WWI. Impirialism is when a country takes over new lands or countries. In my mind these is the most significant cause that led to the outcome of World War One. Some of the events that led to the outcome of WWI are: when Germany supports independence of Morocco, The first and the Second Boer Wars wich occur in 1880 to 1899 and the Bosnian Crisis in 1908. I find these events very important, these events but a lot of others that I did not menttion. Impirialism hides a lot of history behind it during that time. Great Britain , Germany and France they had the need of having markets after the increase of manufactoring and these was led by the Industrial Revolution. Also these countries let a lot of economic problems in Africa. During that time in Africa Britain and France had disolved their problems, the same time crises were starting between Germany against Britain and France in the North Africa and in the Middle East the Ottoman Empire caused attention to Austia Hungary, the Balkans and Russia. We can see that inside imperialism their is alliances and militarism each event has these causes. But I consider Imperialism as the most significant.
Alliances , militarism and imperialism are the main causes which let to the outbreak of WWI. But in my mind Imperialism is the most significant. We can see that each cause had different events, but these events were part of imperialism. Because of how the events had occured we can see that Impiirialism affected appon Alliances and on Militarism. Even though I havent mentioned all the events almost all of the events are impirialistic, we can see that countries were taking lands , they were conquering other countries which these led many countries to fight each other, which these led the outbreak of WWI.
