    The document outlines four background factors that led to the outbreak of World War 1: the formation of alliance systems, the arms race, heightened tensions in Europe, and increased nationalist rivalries. It describes how the alliance system increased tensions among powers and helped tighten some relations, how the arms race triggered an arms buildup among powers and increased mutual suspicion, and how heightened tensions and nationalist rivalries increased local conflicts and the risk that a small conflict could escalate into a major war.
