If you are new to the First World War - or are rusty after many years since history class - the reasons for the so-called 'Great War' can be shrouded in confusion.
The Second World War was rather more straightforward: no questions there who did what and who was at fault.
This website contains much material based in and around the events of World War One - but if you are unsure how it began and who did what, well, where to begin? That's the purpose of this section of the site.
Admittedly the origins of the war remain somewhat controversial even after all these years, but the facts are there. The articles contained here outline the run-up to the war, who was who, and explain why the assassination of Austrian Archduke Franz Ferdinand was by no means the sole cause of the conflict, how it was spoiling anyhow.
Having read these primers you will hopefully be in a better position to explore the remainder of the site which despite its size is, of course, still very much in development.

Which website is this? I normally tell my students to read the disclaimer before going further with their research. Do they listen? Noooooo..

mamat yang kene bunuh ni ade kaitan dgn Dato' Muntri Rahman Andak.
Dia kawan baik Dato' Rahman Andak. Duke Ferdinand ni pernah jadik tetamu Sultan Johor pade tahun 1893 di ketiga2 istananye di Bukit Bintang, Tyersall dan Woodneuk.
Received Datoship dari Sultan Abu Bakar and pernah dihadiahkan beberape bilah keris.
kesian dengan nasib Duke Ferdinend kawan baik bapak dia ni.. anaknye Sultan Ibrahim invested heavily mase perang dunia pertama ; he donate 9 bijik warplane.. some say.. 57 bijik... but aku rase 9 bijik tu yg boleh dipercayai.
