The work examines the complex corporate factors that led to the outbreak of World War I, focusing on the actions and positions of various nations such as Serbia, Russia, Germany, and Austria-Hungary. It delves into the political machinations, diplomatic failures, and the series of ultimatums that escalated tensions, ultimately paving the way for one of history's greatest conflicts. The opening of the book outlines the pivotal events surrounding the assassination of Archduke Ferdinand in June 1914 and Austria-Hungary's aggressive response to Serbia. It details the demands issued by Austria in the ultimatum to Serbia, and how despite Serbia's conciliatory reply, further negotiation attempts were rebuffed by Austria and Germany, leading to the mobilization of forces. This section sets the stage for the eventual declaration of war, highlighting the precarious balance of power and the tangled alliances that defined the political landscape of Europe at the time.
