AnswerWasnt it Germany? They had been making threats until England declared war on 3rd SEptember 1914 after ignoring their actions for ages. AnswerOfficially Austria. Because they declared war on Serbia, Russia honored her promise to defend Serbia, which in turn made Germany honor her promise to defend Austria, which in turn activated the Triple Entent between France, Britain, and Russia.

Answer

It was originally Austria-Hungary, but a Serbian caused the war. You see Archduke Franz Ferdinand was in Serbia for some reason, and a Slavic independence group for some reason hated him. One member threw a hand grenade at him. Since the grenade was from 1914 it took a while to ignite and destroyed the car behind them. They were supposed to go to the hospital. The driver did not know where it was, so they drove around by a restaurant where a member of the Slavic independence group was eating. He ran outside and shot the Archduke. Which caused WW1.

AnswerA Serbian rebel fired shots at the Archduke and Archduchess Ferdinand and killed them. AnswerOk so there was a Serbian rebal with his flag and walked around with it on the Austrian's side and one of the Austrian's got mad and shot him right in the head. And then they started war and Russian rebals were defanding Serbia and Germany was defanding Ausria. And you know how I know that because I am Serbian!!

Answer 2

Austria-Hungary (backed by Germany) declared war against Serbia on 28 July 1914. Germany declared war against Russia On August 1 following Russian military mobilisation. Germany's leaders are widely considered to have sought war at that time to forestall Russian economic and military growth which they saw as a potential future threat given Russia's alliance with France.
