1919628日簽訂的凡爾賽條約 (Treaty of Versailles) 為第一次世界大戰劃上句點

因為歐洲各國對於領土與國界的意見紛歧,加上對其他議題的爭執,導致一個塞爾維亞狂熱份子於1914628日刺殺奧匈帝國皇位繼承人斐迪南大公 (Archduke Ferdinand) 夫婦。就在一個月之後,戰爭正式爆發。到了1915年的年底,奧匈帝國、保加利亞、德國,以及奧圖曼帝國結盟共同對付由英國、法國、俄國、義大利、比利時、塞爾維亞、蒙特尼哥羅 (Montenegro) ,以及日本組成的協約國。西元1917年,英國輪船路西塔尼亞號 (Lusitania) 遭德國潛艇擊沈,一共有128名美國人死亡,美國也因此正式參戰。


Disagreements in Europe over territory and boundaries, among other issues, came to a head with the assassination by a Serbian zealot of the Archduke Ferdinand of Austria on June 28, 1914. Exactly one month later, war broke out, and by the end of 1915, Austria-Hungary, Bulgaria, Germany and the Ottoman Empire were battling the Allied Powers of Britain, France, Russia, Italy, Belgium, Serbia, Montenegro and Japan. In 1917, the U.S. entered the war after the British passenger liner the Lusitania was sunk by a German submarine, killing 128 Americans.
