Hello Dear here is ur answer--: It includes two crises of two different periods. 1. The First Balkan Crisis- 1908 It started when Austria-Hungary annexed Bosnia because they wanted to expand their empire into the Balkans. But, Serbia annoyed by this because they wanted Bosnia to become part of a 'Greater Serbia' . At that time, Russia backed up Serbia as the protector of the Slavic people. Serbia and Russia had to back down because Germany backed up Austria-Hungary, as per Triple Alliance of 1882. Germany's army was far stronger than Russia's, and so backing down was their only option. However, Russia began to modernize its armed forces and increase the speed of their mobilization. 2. The Second Balkan Crisis- 1912 & 1913 The Second Balkan Crisis consisted of two Balkan Wars: 1. The First Balkan war of 1912 2. The Second Balkan War of 1913
