was followed by the dual entente, later
the triple entente, to Offset the FREEDOM
nance OF Germany In European poll
tics. The outbreak of the war In 1914
found the chief powers In Europe di
vided into two opposing groups-the
triple alliance, consisting of Germany,
Austria Hungary and Italy: and the
triple entente. composed of England,
France and Russia. The triple alli-
ance had been formed in 1882 to pre-

Balkans by Russia and to prevent
France from declaring war on Ger

fuence France and Russia had con-
Guided a dual alliance in 1889. In 1904
England settled its differences with
France. and in 1907 came to an UNDER
standing with Russia about their poll
icies in Persia, Afghapistan, Tibet and
other territory where their interests
confficted. These arrangements result
ed in the formation of the triple en-
tente. September S, 1914. each OF the
entente powers Joined the others in an
agreement and promised not TO con-
clude n separate peace with tho CEN
trail powers. The triple alliance came
to an end in 1915 when ITALY declared
war on Austria Hungary and Joined
the, entente allies. The balance Of
power, was. therefore, one OF tho Nn-
derlying causes OF the war.
