Sarajevo Crisis

Reason — The immediate cause of the First World War was the murder of Archduke Franz Ferdinand, heir to the Austria-Hungary throne, in Sarajevo, Bosnia, by a secret Serbian group. After this, Austria declared war on Serbia, and due to the alliance system, the war quickly spread across Europe.
