=//__**SERBIA**__//=

//**A section of Serbia (Bosnia) was taken over by Austria-hungary. The serbs in Bosnia were angered by this and created a terrorist group called The Black Hand. They killed the ArchDuke Franz Ferdinand of Austria-Hungary, and his wife. This angered Austria-Hungary, and they sent an ultimatum to Serbia saying that Serbia better arrest all members of the Black Hand, AND let Austrian soldiers monitor the streets of Serbia. **//

//** Serbia did not want enemy troops stationed in their country, so they turned to their fellow slavic country, Russia. Russia struck up an alliance with France and Great Britain to protect each other. So that's the Triple Entente, which was comprised of France, the British empire, and all Slavic countries. **//

//** Then Austria-Hungary aligned with Germany, and Italy. And thus the first world war began. **//

//** You must remember that Serbia is so much smaller than Austria-Hungary, and needed help. Also, this wouldn't have happened if Austria-Hungary had just minded their own business and didn't capture a major Serbian province. **//
