The Middle Ages is the middle period of the three traditional divisions of Western history: classical antiquity, the medieval period, and the modern period. The medieval period is itself subdivided into the Early, High, and Late Middle Ages.
The matter of independence for those groups came after the end of WWI. It was sensitive since Austro-Hungary was on the losers side of the war and the nations in it were though to have the right to have political control. This triggered nationalistic feelings that were dormant. The Germans taking over the empire was very improbable since the Germans had just lost the war and they would not gain territory or control over other powers. A strong alliance was also not on the cards; the new countries would have little to bind them except history since the people spoke different languages. These differences and the fact that every nation in the mpire wanted to have self-determination would most probably to the collapse of the empire (that is what happened).
Answer:
The Germans believed that Great Britain would decide to stay out of the war.
Explanation:
Schlieffen in his plans had made plans to take France by surprise and that a big and successful attack against France was going to be enough to stop Britain from being involved in the war. And This would give the Germans time (Schlieffen had built his plans around six weeks) to move soldiers who had been fighting the French to Russia to take on the Russians.
The attack on France was to be done through Belgium and Luxemburg. Britain in 1839 had guaranteed Belgium her neutrality. Schlieffen's strategy for success was dependent on Britain not supporting Belgium.
