How it all Began
The reason for why World War 1 was declared was because of the spark that the assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand, who was heir to the Austro-Hungarian throne, had triggered. Ferdinand's death that was caused by the 'Black Hand', a Serbian secret society.
The First World War began when Britain and Germany went to war in August 1914. When Andrew Fisher was the Prime Minister of Australia, he committed full support on behalf of Australia for Britain. When war was first established, it was treated enthusiastically by the Australian community.
