But the history, then - then you have indeed learned only that the Emperor Franz Joseph Wilhelm II, was actually forced to open the war against Serbia. It by itself does not actually wanted. He did not know. He was old, you know, and - no. He did not want war. But he was just nothing left. The Germans wanted to win. They wanted more land then they have hoped. And the Kaiser Wilhelm II was precisely the driving point, is not it. Italy was still helpful to us. He was the driving wedge in the Central Europe and is expected to be: Of course we will win the war. In general the Germans.
