Causes of World War I: Understanding Militarism, Alliances, and Nationalism

The First World War, a major conflict from 1914 to 1918, resulted from a complex interplay of factors. Key causes include militarism, where nations like Germany and the UK vied to build powerful navies, causing tension and fear of aggression. Alliances created a web of obligations that escalated regional conflicts. Imperialism fueled competition for colonies, while nationalism intensified rivalries. Significant individuals, influenced by these forces, played critical roles in the war's outbreak. Understanding these causes sheds light on this pivotal moment in history.
