Germany, Austria-Hungary, and Italy were in an alliance together known as the Triple Alliance. This was an agreement between the empires to provide support to each other in case of a Russian declaration of war against them. Serbia was an ally to Russia and so Austria felt that the Serbians helped the Bosnians carry out the assassination. Ferdinand's uncle was emperor of Austria at the time and felt that this was a direct attack on their country. When he went to Kaiser Otto von Bismarck of Germany, Germany agreed to intervene against any Russian threats or threats from their allies. In this case, Germany gave Austria permission to send demands to Serbia to repay them, which they refused to comply with. At the same time, Russia was gathering their army to come to Serbia's aid, which Austria also saw as a direct threat and declared war on Serbia. This culminated in World War I.

Explanation:
General Robert E. Lee, the Confederate commander of the Army of Northern Virginia, invaded Union territory in an attempt to persuade the United States into a negotiated peace after a hoped-for decisive and damaging attack on Northern soil. It was also believed that a notable Southern victory in Union territory might have resulted in financial support and recognition of the Confederate cause from England or France. General Lee's first invasion of the North, which took place in Maryland during September of 1862, was repulsed by Union forces at the Battle of Antietam, but it was followed by a second invasion by Lee into Pennsylvania during the months of June and July in 1863.

Answer:
Economic diplomacy
Explanation:
Economic diplomacy is a central aspect of Chinese foreign policy. During China's remarkable economic rise, it has used economic diplomacy primarily through trade, and the use of carrots as a means to accumulate or attract soft power. This was a part of the broader strategy formulated by think tanks in the PRC during the 1990s titled the new security concept. It is referred to in the West as the period of "China's Peaceful Rise".[6]
Recently, China has changed its strategic doctrine and begun to use economic diplomacy as a coercive tool. After 10 years or so of a policy based primarily on economic carrots, China has begun to show a willingness to use economic diplomacy for coercive means.[7] This is evidenced in the September 2010 incident that blocked shipments of rare earth minerals to Japan. Another incident took place in 2012 in the Philippines, where China sent a gunboat in to enforce trade restricts. China's willingness to use bring in warships during trade disputes is reminiscent to an earlier era of American gunboat diplomacy.[8]
Recent history shows that as China grows more confident, we will see it gradually move away from an economic diplomacy policy of carrots, to sticks.
