Best Answer

The Archduke Franz Ferdinand was the heir to the Austrian throne and his death started World War I. He was killed by Serbians who did not want to be part of the Austrian empire. Russia said that they would help protect their Serbian brothers. So all these nationalist feelings led to the war.
