merge Central Powers into this one

[edit]

They highly duplicate. Joncnunn 20:41, 26 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

(The other article has more information, and refers to a historical term rather than a political alliance. Perhaps it's best if it's *this* article that's merged into the other?)

Merging these articles would be idiotic. "Triple Alliance" refers to the agreement among Germany, Austria, and Italy. "Central Powers" refers to the countries that ended up on Germany's side in WWI. KVenzke 18:17, 9 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]


Too simply wrote?

[edit]

It sounds like it has been written for kids and I just think some of the sentances and use of words are just a little slow...

It was written 2 years ago by some kid I suppose.--143.167.235.164 (talk) 00:23, 18 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Austria-Hungary

[edit]

omg, who wrote the Austria-Hungary section? It's incredibly badly written...--143.167.235.164 (talk) 00:12, 18 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Italy

[edit]

"It is also thought that Britain and Italy had an agreement" - unsupported?

Italy had secret agreement with France.

"This treaty [triple alliance of 1882] led to a tariff war between France and Italy which lasted until 1898, when, Italy having recognized the French Protectorate over Tunisia in 1896, it was terminated and more friendly relations began, and a secret treaty was negotiated in 1902 between the two powers, providing that Italy would not join in an attack on France should the latter be attacked or herself be provoked to attack."

Italy, Germany and Great Britain

[edit]
  • Italy is surrounded by Mediterranean and British navy was the master of this sea. In a case of war against Britain, Italy would lose control on the main islands (Sardinia first). Furthermore Genoa, Leghorn, Naples ports would be blocked. So Italy asked Germany to keep out of the engagements of the Treaty war agains Britain.--Deguef (talk) 12:36, 26 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Lack of context

[edit]

Given that the events leading up to World War I are very complex, I find it ordinarily very difficult to follow most explanations. But I find that this article in particular describes its subject as though it were a series of moves in a chess game, without any context. Marty55 (talk) 04:46, 27 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Germany made an alliance with Russia and Austria-Hungary, but they, Russia and Austria-Hungary didn't like each other — Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.150.175.230 (talk) 18:51, 6 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Disgusting

[edit]

User:Chris troutman "The Wiki is always expanding and everyone is welcomed to contribute". Yeah, my ass. You couldn't be more insulting if you spit in my face after killing my dog in front of it! You, and also others, are nothing but ignorant dismissive pieces of feces, who think the world is made only of ~10 countries and who like to sacrifice accuracy for commodity! Yeah, Romania joined the Triple Alliance and yeah, it DID have a story and reason about it! People like you prevent the world from evolving, prevent the human society from having a broader view! That's your typical American mentality: "I haven't seen/heard/known about it, it doesn't exist!" The Wiki will always be incomplete and inaccurate as long as likes like you run things. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.118.118.190 (talk) 14:00, 16 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The Romanian IP should realize that the Talk Pages are for the discussion of Reliable Sources for the betterment of the articles, not for personal attacks or cyber-rage rants. Your one revert was due to adding inaccurate AND unreferenced material to the InfoBox. 68.19.6.22 (talk) 22:12, 20 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

"Great Balkan Crisis"

[edit]

From the article: On the heels of the Great Balkan Crisis, Austro-Hungarian forces occupied Bosnia and Herzegovina in August 1878 and the empire eventually annexed Bosnia and Herzegovina in October 1908 as a common holding under the control of the finance ministry, rather than attaching it to either Austria or Hungary. - Great Balkan Crisis is a redlink, and I'm struggling to identify which event it could be referring to. Google suggests the first of a series of events known by this name took place in 1908, so that can't be what is being referred to. Given that it's very likely the correct article exists, seems like this requires a redirect, or replacing with the more common term? 5.148.89.228 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 10:33, 23 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
