Causes and Results of WWI
The Triple Alliance, Germany, Austria-Hungary, and Italy were heading for a showdown with the Triple Entente of England, France, and Russia.
As it became apparent that war was on the horizon various countries tried to avoid an escalation in tensions, but no matter how hard they tried German and Austrian military leaders were not about to let their country live and let live. The road to war was quickly approaching; neither side knew what they were about to embark on. The combatants on both sides foolishly were convinced any conflict would be short and glorious. They believed domestic economies and the network of international commerce and finance could not withstand more than a few months of disruption.
