On June 28, 1919, the Peace Treaty was signed in the Hall of
Mirrors at Versailles, five years to the day after the
assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand in Sarajevo triggered
Europe's precipitous descent into war. This war was the first
conflict to be fought on a global scale. By its end in 1918, four
empires had collapsed, and their minority populations, which had
never before existed as independent entities, were encouraged to
seek self-determination and nationhood. Following on from Haus's
monumental thirty-two Volume series on the signatories of the
Versailles peace treaty, The Makers of the Modern World, 28 June
looks in greater depth at the smaller nations that are often
ignored in general histories, and in doing so seeks to understand
the conflict from a global perspective, asking not only how each of
the signatories came to join the conflict but also giving an
overview of the long-term consequences of their having done so.
