This conflict focused on the nationalism that a majority of people wanted; as a result, the negotiation of the Compromise of 1867 created Dual Monarchy of Austria-Hungary. This dual monarchy was a way to cope with the nationalism in the empire by establishing Hungary’s own constitution, legislature, capital, and bureaucracy. This creation was a solution to still keep the empire intact and orderly while still appeasing the nationalistic Hungarians, but not the other nationalities. However, the new state was still under the control of a single monarch and a common foreign policy, army, and system of finances.…

The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand (the Austro-Hungary heir) and his wife on the 28th of June 1914 started a chain of events which were to be disastrous. A month later on the 28th on July 1914, Austria-Hungary waged war and invaded Serbia. Russia then came to support Serbia and Germany invaded Belgium while heading to France. Britain then waged war on Germany. The two sides created the Allied powers with Britain, France and Russia, and the Central powers with Austria-Hungary and Germany. As the war went on, more countries joined each side, including Australia. Australians were enthusiastic to help support Britain and join them in the war, but as time passed and many people died, their opinions on war changed.

On March 5, 1770, a group of brave colonists gathered around a British Soldier at a local tax office. They hurled insults at the soldier, and with the confusion that ranged gunshots were heard; Five men were found wounded on the ground. Although the Boston Massacre seemed to be the colonists' fault since they started off by hurling insults, we must remember how the British Soldiers treated the colonists before. For example, the Quartering Act forced families to have open their homes to British Soldiers in order to shelter and feed them. Nevertheless, the news about the Boston Massacre spread quickly throughout the colonies.…
Evidence of Austria-Hungary’s viciousness against Serbia is seen in the Austro-Hungarian Red Book No. 7 sent to Serbia on July 23, 1914. It says that the Royal Serbian Government must not allow any propaganda against Austria-Hungary and “to accept the collaboration in Serbia of representatives of the Austro-Hungarian Government for the suppression of the subversive movement.” The Austro-Hungarians were demanding too much from the Serbians. They were saying that they could not allow freedom of speech in their country and that those organizations against Austria-Hungary had to be suppressed. This was too much to ask from the Austro-Hungarians and when the Serbians didn’t accept it, they went to war.…
One of the world’s most devastating and history-changing wars was caused by the assassination of Austria-Hungary’s Archduke Franz Ferdinand. He was next in line for the throne to govern over the Austria-Hungary empire in the beginning of the 20th century, and he was rising at a very dangerous and tense time. In the early 1900s, Austria-Hungary was in a stressful conflict with the country of Serbia. The Serbians wanted the land of Bosnia, in which the Austria-Hungarian empire had annexed into their country, and Serbia wanted to unite all of the Serb ethnic groups to form a country known as “Greater Serbia,” (Bodden 19). They wanted to send a message to Austria-Hungary, and they wanted to show that they meant business. So, the Serbian government…

The system of a Dual Monarchy created more problems than it solved and could have led to pushing Austria-Hungary into the very bad positions they were in. The system enabled the Magyars to oppress Serbs, Croats, and Rumanians which weakened their loyalty to the Monarchy. Overall, their system did work, and had it not been in an unsuccessful war, it may have still been working today, according to Lafore. The circumstances that arose and the political and military decisions that were made during this European era is what led Austria-Hungry to become the Second Sick Man. It was…
