Can you explain why the alliance system in Europe in 1914 was designed to maintain peace. Yet it seemed to make the conflict worse once the fighting began?


Rate This Answer

The countries of Europe thought that the alliance system would act as a deterrent to war; in fact it tied the countries together so that, when one country went to war, the others felt themselves obliged to follow. ChaCha!
