Answer:

okay this is really based on my opinion but i think that ww1 began as a feud over the assassination of

Explanation:

In a general sense, World War I and World War II were wars conducted on a massive scale unlike any other wars in history. They were similarly caused by nationalism, imperialism, alliances, and militarism. Both wars saw countries trying to upset the power balance in Europe for their own gain.

WW2 obviously killed more people & had more genocide. The weapons were more fiendish and efficient. The killers were more vicious and effective. WW1 was more destructive to the political and social networks of the time, in ways both good and bad.

The major causes of World War II were numerous. They include the impact of the Treaty of Versailles following WWI, the worldwide economic depression, failure of appeasement, the rise of militarism in Germany and Japan, and the failure of the League of Nations.

There are many theories on what started World War I. Various factors led up to the start of the war. Certain empires were trying to increase their empire, claiming more territory and therefore, more resources from those territories. As these empires were sizing each other up, tensions began to increase. All it took then was just a spark like a match to a gas-soaked log of wood to ignite the fire. That spark was the assassination of Archduke Francis Ferdinand and wife, Sophia of Austria. The icing on the cake was also Serbia fighting for independence.  

By the end of the war, which ended in 1918, there were around 10 million military deaths and seven million civilian deaths. One-third of the military deaths were due to the Spanish flu. The end of the war brought about the end of the Austro-Hungarian and Ottoman empires, the surrender of Germany, and the formation of the League of Nations. The Treaty of Versailles was formed and Germany was asked to pay for their war crimes. The formation of the League of Nations was for the purpose of preventing future world wars.  

However, the world did not learn from the first world war and all their good intentions of not fighting again went out the window. It was just 21 years later when World War II took place. This time the war was even more intense and lasted even longer – six years rather than four years. The world once again took sides in 1939 with Germany, Italy, and Japan on the side of the Axis Group going up against France, Britain, U.S. Russia, and China as the Allied Powers.

ok this is a lot but this just basic info on what went down between the two wars and to be straight both wars helped our world understand that fighting against each other only resulted to unwarranted loss and pain.

ps.i hope this helps
