Yep - something like this was what started WW1....
From Wiki Answers.....
"When WWI Started and Ended
Simply put, World War One began in the year 1914 and officially ended in 1919, when all the treaties had been signed, although fighting had ceased on November 11th 1918.
The initial catalyst was in June 1914: the assassination of Austrian Archduke Franz Ferdinand in Sarajevo, Serbia. The Austro-Hungarian empire wanted to extradite the killer, but Serbia refused.
Once the spark of the Archduke's assassination had lit the fuse, war became virtually inevitable due to the alliance system that the major powers had set up ?- they literally tumbled into war.
Austria mobilized, Serbia mobilized, in response to Austrian mobilization against Serbia, Russia mobilized, in response to Russian mobilization against Austria, Germany mobilized and in response to German mobilization both Britain and France mobilized.
In the summer of 1914 the war began to rage in both the east and the west. It would not end until November 1918.
