Why did russia send troops to the border of austria-hungary in 1914? austria-hungary had invaded serbia, and russia was in an alliance with serbia. austria-hungary was threatening to invade russia. austria-hungary was sending its people to live in russia. austria-hungary needed resisting a german invasion.

They had a pact to protect serbia but serbian nationalist had murdered duke ferdinand, heir to the austrian throne. I shall rather have one French division then the whole of the Austrian Army -A french commander.

nothing certain is known about what happened, but it seems that the country declined gradually, perhaps due to bad government, or, more likely, due to a series of bad harvests, which resulted in widespread and recurrent famine.

the answer is jerusalem
