"None of the links in the chain of events that led to the war explain what set it off, other than the diplomatic and political intrigue in which the European royal courts were embroiled between the assassination of Archduke Ferdinand in June 1914 and the first days of August of that year, when all the governments in Europe accepted the war and thereby made it an inevitable fact."--The Passing of an Illusion (1995) by François Furet
