The assassination of Arch Duke Franz Ferdinand on June 28th, 1914, is ultimately what pushed everyone into the war, and is the main blame for the starting of WWI, after Austria-Hungary wanted to conquer Balkin's land, and the Austrian's "vowed to crush any Serbian effort to undermine its authority in the Balkins", as stated in Root Causes of WWI: MANIA.  Serbia did not like that, causing tension between the two countries, until Gavrilo Princip shot Ferdinand and his wife, unraveling the month long war to follow. Princip was apart of a society called the Black Hand.  "The Black Hand was a secret military organization that sought to reunite all the territories annexed by Austria-Hungary with large Serbian populations''. as informed by an article from Gale World History and Context. The assassination is what caused Austria-Hungary to declare war, and outbreak all the other wars that occured

Although it can be argued that The Alliance System is what lead to the start of World War 1, which is a very important point to bring up, since the alliances are what sparked most of the wars that started following Ferdinand's assassination. In Document 1 of our DBQ, it states, "When the Austrian Grand Arch Duke Franz Ferdinand was assassinated at Sarajevo in Serbia. This area, known as the Powder Keg region, now had a spark that would light the powder keg exploding all of Europe into turmoil." The Alliance System is what caused several of the wars to start, because they had agreed with their allies, that if one went to war, they all did. However, without the assassination of Arch Duke Ferdinand, no war would have been started in the first place, or any of the ones that followed.
