The First World War broke out in 1914‚ originally involving Great Britain‚ France‚ Germany‚ Austria-Hungary and Russia. There were many reasons why the war started; some were long term causes related with the tensions between the countries of Europe‚ such as the conflicts between Britain and Germany and Russia and Austria-Hungary. However there was one short term cause which invoked all the existing tensions to break out in war‚ the assassination of the Archduke and Prince of Austria‚ Franz Ferdinand

despite never having been asked before Austrian annexation took place‚ wholly due to a treaty pledging such support. Hence‚ it would be unwise to ignore the possibility that German support for Austria-Hungary was similarly reluctant following the Sarajevo murder.
