Entangling alliances grew the small conflicts instantly.
When Austria-Hungary attacked Serbia for just the region of Bosnia-Herzegovina, automatically Russia and Germany were in the war.
The United States responded by pushing a resolution through the U.N.’s Security Council calling for military assistance to South Korea.
