How the first World War started

How the First World War Started

During the summer of 1914, many people in Europe felt very optimistic about the future.

Modern technology was improving people's lives.

Political freedom was gradually increasing in many countries.

New artistic styles and scientific discoveries were being made.

But later that summer, a terrible war began.

In the early 20th century, the various countries of Europe competed with each other

in an attempt to be the most powerful country on the continent.

In each country, many of the political leaders wanted to control more land,

more people, and more resources.

The First World War began when the Archduke of Austria-Hungary was assassinated.

Austria-Hungary wanted to punish the assassin,

who was from the small country of Serbia.

This led to a serious dispute, and soon other countries were involved.

Within a few weeks, a war had begun.

On one side were Germany and Austria-Hungary,

and on the other side were Russia, France, and Britain.

The people in these countries at first welcomed the news of a war.

Many people were intensely patriotic and supported the war effort

without thinking carefully about the reasons for the war.

Some people thought that war would bring adventure and glory to their lives,

and they cheered enthusiastically in the streets.

After the war started, it soon became clear that it was a terrible disaster.

In the western part of Europe, the opposing sides fought many bloody battles.

Soldiers on both sides lived in filthy trenches that had been dug out of the ground.

Sometimes hundreds of thousands of men were killed in battles that lasted only a few days.

In most cases, these battles did not result in large gains or losses of territory.

The war continued for more than four years.

When the war was finally over, millions of people had been killed.

Many people realized that their eagerness to fight against other countries

had led them into a great disaster.

This disaster did not end when the war ended in 1918.

During the next 30 years, there would be many violent revolutions in Europe

and a second major war that would be even worse than the first.

Today, people in most European countries no longer view other nations as enemies.

They have no interest in fighting wars with their neighbors.

Instead, they're interested in trading with the other countries

and in visiting those countries as tourists.

The lessons of the 20th century have reminded people

that wars can have terrible consequences.
