Answer:
Davy Crockett was a backwoodsman from Tennessee. His skill as a hunter and storyteller helped get him elected to three terms in Congress. But when he started his first
political campaign, Crockett was doubtful about his chances of winning. “The thought
of having to make a speech made my knees feel mighty weak and set my heart to fluttering.” Fortunately for Crockett, the other candidates spoke all day and tired out the
audience. “When they were all done,” Crockett boasted, “I got up and told some laughable story, and quit. . . . I went home, and didn’t go back again till after the election was
over.” In the end, Crockett won the election by a wide margin.

Answer: Russia mobilized its forces, prompting Germany to declare a two-front war against Russia and France.
More details:
Various systems of alliances were put in place before World War I. The two main alliance systems were the Triple Entente, which had Britain, France and Russia as allies, and the Triple Alliance, which had Germany, Austria-Hungary, and Italy as allies. There were also other alliances, such as Russia taking on recently independent Serbia as an ally, as both had ethnic Slavic populations.
So here's how the start of World War I happened. When the Austrian prince and his wife were assassinated in Serbia, the Austrian government threatened the nation of Serbia with retaliatory action (even though the assassination was carried out by a terrorist group, not the Serbian government). Russia responded to Austria's threat, because Russia was bound to protect its Slavic ally, Serbia. Germany responded to the mobilization of Russian troops, and when Germany declared war on Russia in 1914, they implemented a military plan (the Schlieffen Plan), which assumed war would mean they'd have to take on all members of the Triple Entente alliance. So as soon as Germany declared war on Russia, they sent troops to go attack France. That pulled France and Britain into the war immediately as well, and the war spread and became a global conflict.
Francisco Franco was the leader of Nationalist Spain, which was backed by the axis during the WWII era.
