Secret alliances cause many countries to join a small issue making it a big war.
The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand by a Serbian nationalist would have been a minor blip in history had there not been alliances on each side to back up the actions of Austria and Serbia. Austria's alliance with Germany gave Austria confidence to declare war on Serbia. Russia had shown support of Serbia and had declared they would back them up. However, no one knew of the alliances between Great Britain, France, and Russia and the alliance between Italy, Germany, the Ottoman Empire, and Austria.

4. Before the war we woke early and worked the fields, we were slaves and had no choice in our lives, we were sold at the will of our masters and often seperated from our families. During the war we struggles to know what to do, many of our masters are serving in the war, we are offered the opportunity to fight for the north but must leave behind our women and children and what will become of them. After the war while on the surface much has changed when you look closer you see that it really has not, many of us continue to work for our former masters for meager pay, we can not support our families and work long hours.
5. The greastest change from the war is we are now free and if we have the means we can seek better opportunities for ourselves.
6. My hopes for the future is to be free of this cycle we are in, working for our former masters, not having an education. My hopes is to truly be free and equal to those around me.
