The Great War: Causes and Consequences
World War I (1914-1918) was a devastating conflict triggered by nationalistic tensions and alliances, ignited by the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand. Major belligerents included the Allies (Britain, France, Russia, Italy, and the U.S.) and the Central Powers (Germany, Austria-Hungary, Ottoman Empire, Bulgaria). Key events included the Battles of the Somme and Verdun, leading to significant human losses and political upheaval, culminating in the Treaty of Versailles.
