Probably not, but it was sufficient enough reason for the Austria-Hungary government

at the time.
However, none of this would have been possible without one key player.

I am sure you can guess what is coming next.
Germany.
In the eyes of many historians Germany is to blame for the first world war.
|||||historiadores|||||||||
Why was Germany considered the most responsible in a conflict that they did not directly start?
It is mostly because they alone had the power to stop the war between Austria-Hungary and
Serbia.
All they needed to do was withdraw their blank cheque, and Austria-Hungary would not have

had the financial ability to support a war with Serbia.
This would have kept Austria-Hungary in check and they would never have issued their ultimatum.
|||||||||||||emitido||
Germany also knew that if Austria-Hungary went to war with Serbia, Russia and France
would both get pulled in.
It was almost as if Germany needed to find a way to declare war on their competitors

||||||||||||||||конкуренти
in the region without doing it themselves.
Germany could never just outright declare war on the other nations or they would risk

unifying the entire continent of Europe against them.

But by strategically destabilizing the Balkans they could gode Russia, and therefore France,

Но стратегически дестабилизировав Балканы, они могли бы ожесточить Россию, а значит, и Францию,
into a war with their ally, thus allowing Germany to start a war to suit their needs.
The other reason that Germany wanted war was because it had peaked as a nation.

Другая причина, по которой Германия хотела войны, заключалась в том, что она достигла пика своего развития как нация.
If Germany allowed the rest of Europe to catch up they would lose power and prestige.

This upset no one more than Kaiser Wilhelm II, who was an angry militaristic autocrat.

O Kaiser Wilhelm II, que era um autocrata militarista furioso, foi o único a ficar aborrecido com este facto.
He believed that he was predestined by God to lead his country to greatness.

He hated diplomats and maintained that the only way to ensure Germany's spot of power

War.
In the end World War I was caused by many different factors and countries.
There is not just one person or nation to blame.
However, some are more responsible than others.
If the leaders of Europe were less hungry for power, and more willing to sit down and
negotiate, the war could have been avoided.

Make no mistake, World War I was not unavoidable.

But the leaders in charge saw war as a desirable outcome, or were forced into it by allies.
