on november 11, 1918, in the forest of compigne, in the headquarters carriage of french marshal ferdinand foch, an agreement was signed to cease hostilities between germany and the entente countries. the world imperialist war, which would later be called the first world war, ended. for the overwhelming majority of participants, it was precisely imperialist. there were no participating countries defending fair interests. well... in addition to the 'fair' redistribution of markets, colonies with their resources and cheap labor, trade routes. - austrian generals and a group of bankers wanted to add serbia to their patchwork empire after bosnia and herzegovina. - the serbs and bulgarians wanted to play 'great power from sea to sea'. - the french have been dreaming of revenge for more than 40 years and were eager to tear alsace and lorraine away from germany. - the british were afraid for their colonies, suffered from competition from powerful german industry, and most of all they feared the rapid strengthening of the german navy. - germany hit the ceiling of its own height and looked with lust at the huge british colonies, over which the sun never set. in addition, wilhelm ii really wanted to be like his grandfather, not only in name. however, he did not have his own bismarck and roon, and moltke the younger succeeded in becoming an uncle only by his last name.
