What happened on Wednesday July 01, 1914?

Here's what happened on July 01, 1914:

• Germany's Blank Cheque to Austria-Hungary Before World War I On July 1st, 1914, Kaiser Wilhelm II and Chancellor Theobald von Bethmann Hollweg made a pivotal diplomatic decision that would significantly contribute to the outbreak of World War I. They issued a 'blank cheque' to Austria-Hungary, promising unconditional support in their potential conflict with Serbia. This diplomatic assurance emboldened Austria-Hungary to take aggressive actions against Serbia, ultimately setting in motion a chain of events that would lead to the global conflict. The unconditional support signaled Germany's willingness to back its ally militarily, regardless of the potential consequences, which would prove to be a critical moment in the lead-up to the Great War.
