Make sure you understand the contextual causes and can explain each: nationalism, imperialism, militarism, alliances
Events that directly led to WWI:
Terrorist group (Black Hand) wanting an independent Bosnia and supported Serbia, assassinates (by Gavrilo Princip) the Austrian heir to the throne, Archduke Franz Ferdinand in late June 1914 on his visit to Sarajevo.
This causes a chain of events that brings many states into war:
i) With the assurance of German support, Austria issues an ultimatum to Serbia to punish those involved in the assassination and suppress nationalism.
ii) Serbia does not accept the part to allow an Austrian inquiry
iii) July 28, 1914, Austria-Hungary declares war on Serbia. Russians mobilize to support Serbia.
iv) France is eager to enter the war to regain Alsace and Lorraine
v) Germany orders Russia and France to stop mobilizing
vi) Germany makes good on its word to Austria and war is declared by Germany on Serbia-Russia and France on August 1, 1914.
vii) Germany decides to strike France through Belgium
viii) Britain is against the attack on neutral Belgium and enters the war.
ix) Italy enters the war on the side of the Triple Entente in order to protect its naval routes from the Germans and to protect its war loans and military sales to the Allies (Triple Entente)
