But no Germany is the sole reason world war one happened kids, not Serbia. It was those evil germans that where just like the rest of europe acting on defensive pacts made years earlier.

>>2479172

Yes clearly self-defence.

>>2479172
Serbia started the conflict, Germany made it a world war.

>>2479179
>Austria-hungary declares war on serbia because of ultimatu denial.
>France must declare war on austria hungary
it where the declaration of war against austria-hungary that caused for the german-french conflict in the first place. Had no one declared war on austria it would've just been a local conflict between serbia and austria

>>2479179
Premptive war is self-defence.Specially if France is allied with Russia and Britain just to fuck over Germany

>>2479186
But France didn't declare war on Austria or anyone you brainwashed naziboo /pol/tard.

>>2479192
I think we should preemtively nuke Germany, it would be self-defence.

>>2479186

>waaaaahhhhh it's everyone's fault for declaring war on Austria
>it's not Austria's fault for declaring war on a country with powerful allies

>>2479192
That just means that
a) Germany failed on the diplomacy department even before the war
b) Germany shouldn't have entered the AH-Serbia-Russia conflict.

In fact, AH only proceeded because Germany gave them the fucking blank check confirming they'd handle Russia. They knew what they were getting into and chose to do it.

>>2479213
Russia and France were open treaty-fied allies, just like Austro-Hungary and Germany.

Biggest shame is allowing for France to even have allies to begin with.

>>2479213
>ww1 germany = nazi
these are some mental gymnastics right there

>>2479220
it's Serbia's fault for not allowing a proper investigation of a terrorist act, no matter how you look at it.

>>2479235

Princip was an Austro-Hungarian citizen working with other Austro-Hungarian citizens in an Austria-Hungary-based cell. Don't see what Serbia had to do with anything.

France was under no obligation to go to war, and neither was Germany. This had nothing to do with either country. Except that Germany was looking for any random excuse to invade France.

>>2479226
First of all no, the only difference is the Holocaust. And second of all you're literally parroting Nazi propaganda lies about how WW1 wasn't Germany's fault at all.

>>2479246
>Serbian ethnicity, Serbian independance terrorist cell, killed in name of Serbia
>what has Serbia got to do with it ?

>>2479281
I'm saying germany didn't start the war, and the war is as much germany's fault as it is french, english, austrian, etc. Unlike ww2 which was soley started and caused by germany.
and there is a huge difference between nazi germany and old german empire, in principle alone.

>>2479235
Didn't one of the ultimatum's demands - and the only one the Serbians refused if I'm remembering correctly - involved letting Austro-Hungarians police on Serbian ground?
Doesn't seem to be all Serbia's fault on that one.

>>2479292
>Germany gives the blank check to Austria, emboldening them to proceed with the war in full knowledge that Russia will defend Serbia
>Germany unilaterally tries to invade France (who it had made an enemy to itself a few decades earlier) through Belgium, a neutral country.
>Germany is as responsible as France/UK/AH.

>>2479297
It's always blown out of proportions. It just involved Austrian officials getting involved in the investigation on Young Bosnia.

>>2479299
Dude they were pretty much forced to invade. They were left with no other options.

>>2479299
world war 1 was a shitfest of defensive pacts and alliences jumping into action at the same time.

they have themselves to blame for wanting more

lol yeah, "it was everyone's fault"

If anything German invasion of Poland in WW2 was less unjustified than the shit Germany pulled in WW1. And what's that supposed huge difference between Germany in WW1 and WW2 according to you?

Man who started ww1 is like saying video games aren't art on /v/ it just blows up

They could have
1) Pressed AH to not declare war
2) Sent envoys to France to try for a truce
3) Sent envoys to Russia to find a diplomatic solution
4) Fortify the frontier with France so France would be the aggressor if it tried to attack

Instead, they let AH decide whether to start the conflict or not, and then dragged France and the UK into it without a moment's hesitation.
