This essay is written about World War I. It shows how it started and the events that led up it. It talks about the growth of nationalism, imperialism, and the massive build up of armies and weapons prior to the outbreak of World War I. And lastly the formation of strategic alliances between countries. My essay also shows how some countries didn't want to fight a in the war but were eventually dragged in because of the alliances they had made with other countries.The event that triggered the outbreak of World War I was the assassination of Archduke Ferdinand in 1914 (Baldwin, 1962). He was heir to the Hapsburg or Austro-Hungarian Empire until his untimely death at the hands of a Serbian nationalist by the name of Gavrilo Princip. However, prior to his assassination, a number of political events took place between 1870 and 1914 that have been considered by historians to be major factors in the outbreak of World War 1(Baldwin, 1962).

Unfortunately, your essay doesn't do all that you say it will in your opening lines. It would probably be difficult for anyone to accomplish all you set out to do in less than 200 words. Had you accomplished your goals, it might have been a very informative essay, but you have more work to do before the essay is complete.
