2 4 MAIN Causes of WWI Militarism countries beefing up their militaries led to increased hostility Alliances countries had each other s backs Imperialism competition for colonies led to tensions Nationalism pride in one s country/ethnicity led to desires for expansion/ independence

3 Militarism effect of Social Darwinism a strong military = survival of the fittest armies & navies were expanded Increased tensions Britain & Germany had the biggest naval rivalry

4 Alliances Purpose of alliances was to ensure security 1882: Triple Alliance was formed (They are the bad guys to us) Formed by Otto von Bismarck (remember him?) Italy, Germany, & Austria-Hungary They later become the Central Powers Italy switches sides to gain Austrian-ruled territory

5 1904: Triple Entente was formed Entente means nonbinding agreement to follow common policies Formed between France & Britain Russia later joined (hence the Triple part) They became the Allies after the war started

6 Alliances of WWI Two Sets of Alliances Central Powers Austria-Hungary Ottoman Empire Germany Bulgaria Allies Great Britain Belgium Montenegro France Greece USA (April 1917) Portugal Serbia Russia Romania

7 Imperialism Berlin Conference tried to prevent physical fighting over colonies Tensions still increased
