Germany ordered Vienna to “go ahe”

According to several reports that narrate account of 1914 war, refusal of  German government to cooperate with British Foreign Office for an international convention led to thaw of relations among European nations. While Berlin, Paris, and Rome sought to moderate conflict, Germany ordered Vienna to “go ahe” with military plans. In response, Russia mobilized troops in four military districts on Galicia, USSR’s frontier with Austro-Hungarian territory.  

While Europe and Russia locked into a military conflict, Great Britain, an ally to both Germany and Russia offered to mediate for negotiations and sworn to remain neutral but got involved in war defending interest of Belgium entering into “July Crisis”. And hence, Germany declared war on Russia on 1 August and h a military conflict with France on August 3. While Germany violated Belgian neutrality, Britain entered war on August 4 fearing Germany’s dominance on Europe. After nearly four years of wars, allied powers United Kingdom, France, and United States won war, and a peace agreement with Germany, Treaty of Versailles, was signed that marked end of WWI.
