“Was Germany Responsible for the Outbreak of World War One?”
The “ War Guilt Clause” of 1919 held Germany and Austria responsible for the outbreak of World War One. ... I don’t think its fair to label Germany as the principal instigator because the war was caused through tensions already existing between nations long before the war began. ... This could be seen in the naval race between Germany and Britain, in which both countries challenged one another’s naval power and consequent supremacy at sea. ... The two most powerful alliances were the Triple Alliance formed between Germany, Austria- Hungary and Italy in 1882, and the Triple Entente signed in 1907 between Russia, France and Britain. ...
Germany is held responsible for the outbreak of the war because of its aggressive imperialistic pursuits and thirst for power, yet many people forget about the country’s alliance with the dangerously nationalistic Austria- Hungary.
