Austria-Hungary Declares War on Serbia

July 28th, 1914 110 years ago

After the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand in June, Austria-Hungary issued an ultimatum to Serbia with several demands. Serbia accepted most, but not all, of the terms. Austria-Hungary viewed this as insufficient and declared war on Serbia on July 28, 1914, initiating a series of alliances that would lead to the outbreak of World War I, marking a significant turning point in global conflict.
