Well leaving Germany in a strong position would have led to another war

No it wouldn't have

Remember the war began because Austria wanted to invade Serbia

and its unreasonable eg for the French not to expect Alsace Lorraine after the huge effort of the war

My point is that the war shouldn't have happened in the first place

It was a stupid war over nothing

nah WW1 was as a result of the tensions inherent in Europe at the time and wouldve happened anyway

But yeah Britain shouldve stayed out of it

No it wouldn't have

Otto Von Bismarck worked very hard ensuring the power balance prevented any wars

Yeah, the assassination was merely the breaking-point

He was out the picture at this point

The Kaiser ruined that by involving Germany in a war that didn't involve them at all

The conflict could have been completely avoided

Austria could just invade Serbia and win, Then they would just leave after since they had no plans for annexation, Conflict over

And you don't need a World War

wait, but that was the reason the war happend

You're forgetting Russia's alliance with Serbia

^

Russia wouldn't have intervened with pressure from the Kaiser

you mean the pressure of going to war?

🤷‍♂️

They were childhood friends in the firstplace, The Tsar was on the verge of backing out real life

sure but they still fought

If the Kaiser simply encouraged him to stay out of it i think he would have listened

Especially if Germany was staying out of it too

The alliance wouldn't have made much of a difference given that Serbia would remain independent after the war

Because Austria had been forced by Hungary to not annex Serbia

So the alliance could just continue after

hmm, idk, dont think it was that simple then, but whatever, shit happend. Nothing we can do anything about now anymore

No i am just making the point that the First World War didn't need to happen in the first place and because of our actions in the First World War we caused a Second World War

Millions of lives lost because of France and the UK turning 1 unnecessary war into 2 unnecessary wars

oh I agree, the first world war could have been avoided, I just dont think it was that simple

Think about what would have happened if there was no intervention

Austria invade and takes over, Declares Victory and leaves, Serbia remains independent and goes back to their Alliance with Russia.

Easy

well, a lot of military tech would have not been developed until later, the entire russian revolution could not have happend at all

hell down the line
