An Assassination Leads to War What sparked the war? In 1914, Archduke Franz Ferdinand was assassinated. He had been the heir [person set to inherit the property or title of another] to the throne of Austria-Hungary. His killer was a Serb who wanted to unite all Serbs (including those in Austria-Hungary) under one government. This touched off an
4
action to punish Serbia. The Alliance system pulled one nation after another into the conflict. If a nation had sworn to protect another, it had to declare war on that nation’s enemies. Germany and Austria-Hungary were facing France, Great Britain, and Russia. 2. Why did the assassination lead to fighting? ______________________________________________________________________ Where did the fighting begin? The Kaiser’s [German emperor] plan began by invading Belgium. It planned to overrun France and then to attack Russia. The British and French could not save Belgium. They did, however, manage to stop Germany’s advance. By the spring of 1915, two lines of deep trenches had developed in France. Germans occupied one line. The Allies occupied the other line. Between the two lines lay “no man’s land.” The soldiers would climb out of their trenches and try to overrun enemy lines. They did this while facing machine gun fire and poison gas. The bloody trench warfare continued for more than three years. Neither side gained territory, but more than one million soldiers died. 3.
