The 1914 ‘July Crisis’ was the preceding act to the First World War - a period of diplomatic wrangling which concluded
in the Great Powers of Europe declaring war upon one another in early August.
The catalyst to the July crisis, and indeed the entire war, was the assassination of the heir to the Austrian Hungarian throne, Archduke Franz Ferdinand on June 28th by Serbian nationalist Gavrilo Princip.
For the more hawkish elements of the Austro-Hungarian leadership, the assassination provided a welcome pretext to quash troublesome pan-slavic nationalism. But they saw their victory as pre-ordained and did not dream of igniting a European conflict - but that is exactly what happened.
AS Level History - Causes of the First World WarArm Punyathorn
The First World War is one of the most important event in human history not only because it results in so many deaths and such widespread destruction but because it highlights a certain flaw in human nature and the nature of civilization that has plagued mankind for 4000 years. Up until the start of the -called "Great War", humanity is doomed to remain in a cycle of war and destruction. It is the first world war, its futility and prevent-ability that forever changed human's perspective to conflicts and civilization.

El Puerto de Algeciras continúa un año más como el más eficiente del continente europeo y vuelve a situarse en el “top ten” mundial, según el informe The Container Port Performance Index 2023 (CPPI), elaborado por el Banco Mundial y la consultora S&P Global.
El informe CPPI utiliza dos enfoques metodológicos diferentes para calcular la clasificación del índice: uno administrativo o técnico y otro estadístico, basado en análisis factorial (FA). Según los autores, esta dualidad pretende asegurar una clasificación que refleje con precisión el rendimiento real del puerto, a la vez que sea estadísticamente sólida. En esta edición del informe CPPI 2023, se han empleado los mismos enfoques metodológicos y se ha aplicado un método de agregación de clasificaciones para combinar los resultados de ambos enfoques y obtener una clasificación agregada.

2. The 1914 ‘July Crisis’ was the preceding
act to the First World War - a period of
diplomatic wrangling which concluded in
the Great Powers of Europe declaring war
upon one another in early August.
3. Sarajevo
Heir to the Austrian Hungarian throne
assassinated by Serbian nationalist
4. Chief of General Staff
Foreign Minister
Conrad von Hotzendorf, the Austro-Hungarian
Commander in Chief, pressed the Foreign Minister,
Count Leopold von Berchtold, to declare war on Serbia.
6. Chief of General StaffForeign Minister
Hungarian Prime Minister
This was resisted by Prime
Minister of Hungary Istvan Tisza.
He preferred seeking retribution
through diplomatic channels.
7. Tisva was aware of the potentially devastating
escalation that could be brought about by
inflaming the alliance network.
8. • Russia backed Serbia should Austria-Hungary attack.
• Germany was bound by the Dual Alliance to protect Austria should Russia attack.
• The Franco-Russian Military Convention of 1892 mandated French assistance should Russia be
at war with Germany or Austria-Hungary.
• Britain had effectively guaranteed the French should she be at war with Germany.
9. Austria-Hungary acted on the assumption that Russia would resist
mobilisation, limiting itself to diplomatic manoeuvres.
10. Hungarian Prime MinisterGerman Emperor
Tisza nevertheless sought a guarantee of Germany’s
support should Russia respond differently, and on 6 July
Kaiser Wilhelm offered the now famous ‘blank cheque’
11. Austria Hungary
unlimited
Kaiser Wilhelm II
06.06.1914
Unconditional support
This ‘blank cheque’ became the main determining
factor in Austro-Hungarian policy throughout July.
12.
13. Remarkably, and unexpectedly, Serbia agreed to all but a
few minor demands. However, this provided sufficient
justification for a formal declaration of war.
14. On 30 July Tsar Nicholas II agreed to a full Russian
mobilisation, while Austria-Hungary did the same.
Russian Emperor
15.
16. The German Schlieffen plan meant that Germany would need
to defeat France in six weeks to avoid a two front war. Thus
Germany prepared to attack France.
17. Germany delivers an ultimatum to Belgium,
demanding that she remain neutral whilst
German troops pass through into France.
18. This prompted Sir Edward Grey, the British Foreign
Secretary, to announce in Parliament on August 3rd that
Britain would defend Belgian neutrality, in accordance
with the Treaty of London (1839).
British Foreign Minister
21. Britain called for a ‘satisfactory’
explanation, but none was
forthcoming. Britain was therefore
forced to declare war on Germany.
22. In the opinion of AJP Taylor,
the Belgium justification was a
pretext for an action governed
by a secret, pre-existing
pledge to support France.
23. “The lamps are going
out all over Europe, we
shall not see them lit
again in our life-time.”
24. It is difficult to extract a decisive event or decision from the obfuscating, boasting and paranoia that
characterized the lead up to pan-European warfare.
The month of diplomatic wrangling that separated the assassination from the first declaration of war
was fundamentally altered by Germany’s promise of a ‘blank cheque’, but that alone cannot account for
the entire sequence of events.
Crucially, it was an alliance network developed since 1870 that allowed the conflict to infect all the major
European powers and so create a devastating continental conflict.
