Sam, virtually every single element in your text above is incorrect.

It was the Austrians who wanted war against Serbia and they set up their own Archduke (whom they most willingly sacrificed) to achieve their aims.

As for the rest, it’s boilerplate propaganda against the Serbs which historians with integrity have nullified.

LOL. Yeah, sure. The same Serbs who in the 1990s attacked their own villages to blame on the Croats. Theirs is the lamest game in history. Establish a huge minority in a foreign nation such as the minority Serbs in Austria, and then go to war to claim a chunk of said country.

Did the Serbs not make out like bandits from WWI after Wilson gave them a nation about 8 times their size?

It should be remembered too that Serbia agreed to
all of the Austrian demands, (I believe there were 11
in all) but one. That demand would have allowed Austria
to enter and arrest any Serbian they deemed to have threatened the Austrian empire. An unacceptable demand
for any nation.
