The First Great War was instigated with the assasination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austro-Hungary on June 28th 1914.

After the assissination of France Ferninand began The Great War. Another cause was militarism.
Militarism-
Germany was the
leader in military organization and efficiency, the great powers of Europe copied the universal conscription. Technological
and organizational developments led to the formation of general staffs. An attack that often could not be reversed once they
were begun. The German von stiffen plan to attack France before Russia in the event of war with Russia was one such complicated
plan that drew more countries into war than necessary.
