“Just yesterday, you sent me a telegram appealing to my friendship and called upon me to act as an intermediary and help resolve

the conflict between you and the Austro-Hungarian government. But I understand that, even as you did that, your troops were being mobilized against Austria-Hungary. This makes my attempts at meditation almost pointless. Nonetheless, I continued in my efforts today.
I now receive fresh news of even more serious Russian preparations for war on my Eastern frontier. Responsibility for the safety of my empire forces me to take defensive and preventive measures. In my endeavors to maintain the peace of the world, I have gone to the utmost limit possible. The responsibility for the disaster that is now threatening the civilized world will not be laid at my door. At this moment, you still have the power to avert war. Nobody is threatening the honor or power of Russia, and you can well afford to await the result of my mediation. My friendship for you and your empire, transmitted to me by my grandfather on his deathbed, has always been sacred to me and I have often supported Russia in the past when she was in serious trouble.”

Wilhelm II, emperor of Germany, telegram to Tsar Nicholas II of Russia, July 31, 1914

Answer with Explanation:

<em>I can see that there are no choices.</em>

The event which preceded the outbreak of the First World War was the assassination of "Franz Ferdinand," the person who was supposed to inherit the<em> Austria-Hungary throne.</em> He was a close friend of Kaiser Wilhelm, the last German emperor. His assassination occurred while he was having a city tour in Saravejo.

Such<em> insolent crime</em> made Austria-Hungary enforce its authority by preparing for a war. Emperor Franz Josef then asked for help from Kaiser Wilhem by writing a letter. It was successful in having Germany's full support.

Then, Austria-Hungary demanded Serbia to<u> wipe-out terrorists within its border</u> due to the assassination of Franz Ferdinand. This was actually an <em>ultimatum</em> and that if they didn't act fast, they will have to face a<em> military action.</em><em> </em>

Serbia then asked help from the Russian government. The Russian troops were started to be mobilized against Austria-Hungary.

omeli [17]

Answer:

A. It was used by the Catholic Church and in academic settings.

Explanation:

Latin was for 20 centuries the official language of the Church. Academic writing and research was published in Latin. Masses were said in Latin, despite the fact that only the clergy and the best educated people (very few people during the Middle Ages) were the only ones who could speak and understand it. It was only in the second half of the 20th century that the Roman Catholic Church authorized masses in the local and national languages of each country.
