Russia had a special ethnic tie with serbia because both countries had slavic populations. austria hungary declared war on serbia and july 1914. use the map to explain how this could lead to widespread war

Good Morning!

The map illustrates the geographical proximity of Russia and the Slav countries, such as Serbia. This territorial proximity is one of the consequences of the common ethnic roots of these peoples. A war developed in this region could easily involve other nations interested in defending a Pan-Slavism, as occurred when the Austro-Hungarian Empire initiated the conflict after the death of the archduke.

Hugs!
