This book is too niche, the history of the Balkans may not be familiar to everyone, and most people are stuck in the world wars.

In fact, at the end of the 19th century, diplomacy and World War I in the Balkans were completely two concepts!

In the 1890s, at the peak of German-Austrian diplomacy, most countries in the Balkans were allies or younger brothers!

Bulgaria was Russia's only ally in the Balkans at the time. Historically, after Stam's cabinet came to power, the relationship between Bulgaria and Russia broke down! !

During the Konstantin government, relations eased again. Since then, Bulgaria has been swaying between the two major groups. The Russians chose Serbia in the Balkan War, and later joined the Allies by civil justice!

The younger brother of Serbia and Austria-Hungary, from its independence until Austria-Hungary annexed Bosnia and Herzegovina in 1907, the contradictions intensified, the pro-Russian faction prevailed, and then changed jobs! !

To put it simply, the independence of Serbia and Austria-Hungary joined together. In 1885 and 1886, the Bulgarian-Serbian war was defeated, and Austria-Hungary also took a shot, and the political economy and culture were infiltrated!

Although the descendants of Greece were the younger brothers of the United Kingdom, at the end of the 19th century, the major powers had influences. At that time, the pro-German faction prevailed, and it was only later that they changed their positions!

Romania was an ally of Germany at the time, and signed a secret treaty with Germany and Austria, but after the death of Carol I, the pro-Entente power grew and joined the Allies in World War I!

In general, the major powers in the Balkans have intervened. In the 19th century, after Russia moved eastward, it relaxed its interference in the Balkans!

The Balkan countries are all independent from the Ottomans, and the contradictions between the two sides are self-evident!

The second is the contradiction between the Bulgaria and the Serbia. In 1885, Serbia invaded Bulgaria and was defeated! With the intervention of Austria-Hungary, the war ended, and the two sides also took over their revenge. Serbia always wanted to take revenge, but Bulgaria was unwilling to fight a battle for nothing! !

As we all know in a small country, relatives and friends are always killed in a war, and the hatred between the two sides came like this. The pressure of public opinion made it impossible for the two governments to compromise! Whenever there is a chance, both sides will choose to fall to the ground!

Well, briefly explain again, it is also mentioned in the book, some people may not pay attention!

Now let me explain again, I hope you don't bring into the international relations of World War I, there are still twenty years left for the World War!

The main contradictions in the world today are: the contradiction between Germany and France, the contradiction between Britain and Russia, the contradiction between Britain and France

The second is: the contradiction between Russia and Austria, the contradiction between Britain and Germany

Everyone knows the contradiction between Germany and France!

The Anglo-Russian conflict has lasted for decades from Eastern Europe, the Mediterranean, Central Asia, India, the Far East, etc. The Crimean War and the Russo-Japanese War are all manifestations of the Anglo-Russian conflict!

The contradictions between Britain and France can be traced back to hundreds of years. The "Hundred Years War", "Anti-French Alliance", "American War of Independence"... All of them were fought over African colonies at the end of the 19th century, and Britain and France were only one step away from the war!

When it comes to Britain's enemies: the first is Russia; the second is France; the third is the United States, and some say Germany.

At the end of the 19th century, Britain and Germany were still quasi-ally allies. Britain, Germany, Austria and Italy were preparing to establish a four-nation alliance. Negotiations began. Later, when the Conservative Party came to power, it pursued the "glorious isolation policy", in order to maintain the balance of the continent!

After entering the 20th century, the strong rise of Germany broke the balance of the European continent, threatened the hegemony of Britain, and intensified the contradiction between Britain and Germany!

Okay, let’s talk a little about it, it’s convenient for everyone to read! !

Otherwise, everyone may wonder: are the foreign powers crazy, how can they join forces with the enemy to kill their own people; is the protagonist sick, why do you want to fight Serbia when you have nothing? ? Might as well find the Ottomans or Romania to have a head! !

Thank you for your support. Maybe many readers have followed in a daze. I can only say that you have worked hard! !

Good night
