What caused world war l to begin?

The "official answer"

World War 1 was started because there was a lot on tension between countries over who owns what territory. Then, Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria-Hungary was shot. This caused Austria-Hungary to go in a frenzy, and that was the beginning.

        i'm fairly sure that the correct answers are 2 and 3.

        i used both my knowledge of world history and the process of elimination to obtain these answers. option 1 cannot be a possible selection because the mandate of heaven belongs to ancient chinese philosophical belief. option 4 sounds like it would benefit the region than detriment it. however, both 2 and 3 explain a potential reason for what could have contributed to the fall of the roman empire.

      hope this ! if i were you, i'd get a second opinion, because i haven't taken this course for a year. best of luck!
