The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand led to escalating tensions between countries that pulled them into World War I. Major battles such as the Battle of the Marne, Battle of Verdun, and Battle of the Somme resulted in immense casualties. Germany's Schlieffen Plan failed and America later joined the Allies. After years of devastating war, Woodrow Wilson proposed the Fourteen Points and the League of Nations to establish peace and prevent future conflicts.
