When WW1 started, the Serb military knew that its forces had been heavily depleted in the Balkan Wars. Any sane country would have taken a couple of decades to replenish and rebuild. But these hotheads in the Serb military just couldn't help provoking a major war by assassinating Franz Ferdinand. Like a third of the Serb population died in the war, they fought like crazy with a small fraction of the weapons their enemies had.

The Serb military did not fund or support the crazies that killed Franz but they would not apologize for it either. A simple verbal apology would have precluded the entire war. Austria badly wanted to avoid the whole thing and basically begged on hands and knees for them to give them the PR win and avoid the war. Even the Russian Czar was like "just apologize" but Nicholas was a cuck and wanted a war so he could neuter the new Duma so he didnt particularly bend any Serb elbows. For want of a worthless apology tens of millions died.

Same shit is about to go down over Iran. Basically retards scuffling. But this time the US is Austria-Hungary and the war is going to show we dont have the industrial base to fight anyone. Israel is getting 1/3 of all the THAAD interceptors in existence and it wont make a dent against the shit storm of missiles Iran is going to fire into Israel and they will literally blow up all the radars on day 1. Emperor has no clothes moment coming soon.

Germany wanted war and made it clear to Austria that they would fully support them against Serbia. At that point an easy victory over Serbia seemed to be a foregone conclusion so there was widespread support for war in Austria, with German support.

Also, the Austrian ultimatum basically required Serbia to give up its sovereignty by having Austria come in and take over the investigation and punishment of the plotters. They knew and intended that Serbia would not accept that.

This is re-write of history. The original Austrian proposal did not call for that. They hardened their position the more obtuse the Serbs became but until the last minute would have just accepted an apology as the Serbs fully understood.

There was no foregone conclusion. The Austrian leadership knew they had a shit military and weak social concensus and the Germans did not push them into it but they needed a PR win and the Serbs would not take the easiest of outs handed to them. The Austrians went the most unwillingly into the whole thing. The Germans and Russians were cool either way (idiot fucks) and the French and British seemed to barely understand what their retarded treaty obligations to Russia actually meant until too late. The British almost double crossed the Russians at the last minute. There were a series of telegraphs asking the Germans what would it look like if England declared against Russia. The retard British king killed the double cross at the last minute because of "what would the French think of us." Moron.

Serbia was an independent state in 1914. It gained independence in 1878 but like now -- its a landlocked bitch and needs to suck cock to trade. Landlocked kingdoms are fucked. Their only hope is Russia coming in and slaughtering a lot of people for them -- again.
