4 Although forces were pushing Europe to war, the great powers had formed alliances to try to keep the peace. The Triple Alliance included Germany, Austria-Hungary, and Italy. Russia and France, and later Britain, formed the Triple Entente. During World War I, the Ottoman Empire, Germany and Austria fought together as the Central Powers. At that time, Russia, France, and Britain became known as Allies. In the decades before 1914, European powers competed to protect their status. Overseas rivalries divided them, as they fought for new colonies in Africa and elsewhere. They began to build up their armies and navies. The rise of militarism helped to feed this arms race. At the same time, sensational journalism stirred the public against rival nations. Nationalism also increased tensions. Germans were proud of their military and economic might. The French hoped for the return of Alsace and Lorraine. Russia supported a powerful form of nationalism called Pan- Slavism. This led Russia to support nationalists in Serbia. Austria-Hungary worried that nationalism might lead to rebellions within its empire, while Ottoman Turkey felt threatened by nearby new nations, such as Serbia and Greece. Serbia s dream of a southern Slavic state would take land from Turkey and Austria-Hungary. Unrest made this area like a powder keg. Then in 1914, a Serbian nationalist assassinated Archduke Ferdinand, the heir to the Austrian throne. Some Austrian leaders saw this as an opportunity to crush Serbian nationalism. They sent Serbia an ultimatum, which Serbia refused to meet completely. Austria, with German support, declared war in July Soon, the network of alliances drew other great powers into the conflict. Russia, in support of Serbia, began to mobilize its army. Germany declared war on Russia. France claimed it would honor its alliance with Russia, so Germany declared war on France too. When Germany attacked the neutral Belgium, Britain declared war on Germany. The Great War had begun. Which countries made up the Central Powers?
