Apart from the small episode of the Russian Nation loaning 60 million Australian dollars, the global situation was stable for a short period of time.
Of course, no one could foresee or prevent certain events from disrupting this stability, such as a sudden outbreak of war in Europe.
Though the war erupted suddenly, it had been anticipated for some time with the world alliance led by Britain and France playing a significant role behind the scenes.
To discuss this war, it's necessary to mention the peace agreement signed by the Ottoman Empire following its defeat.
The peace agreement had been enforced for several years, but recent issues in the order of the Ottoman Empire led to new conflicts between the Balkan States and the Ottoman Empire.
Indeed, this sudden war was related to the Ottoman Empire, or more precisely, a territorial war between Greece and the Ottoman Empire.
