Cause And Immediate Effect Of World War I (1940)

The film discusses the complex political alliances and events leading up to World War I, including the formation of the Triple Alliance and the Dual Alliance, aggressive expansionist policies by Germany under Kaiser Wilhelm II, and rising tensions with France, Russia, and Britain. It covers key incidents such as the assassination of Archduke Ferdinand, Austria-Hungary’s ultimatum to Serbia, and the subsequent declarations of war that spiraled into a global conflict. The film also highlights the eventual involvement of the United States and the war’s conclusion with the Treaty of Versailles, which imposed heavy reparations and territorial losses on Germany, setting the stage for future conflicts in Europe.
