Nationalism. Quite simply Pan-Slavic, German, French, as well as Turkish nationalism. This coupled with the use of strategic alliances to bolster defense, the Triple Entenete (Great Britain, France, Tsarist Russia)and the Triple Alliance (Germany, Italy, and Austria-Hungary) created the political atmosphere of mistrust and separated Europe into two antagnostic camps which when sparked by the Pan-Slavic movements attempts to unite Southern Europes Slavic peoples into a unitary state free from Ottoman Turkish and Austro-Hungarian dominion sparked the hostilities which led to WW I
