Some important causes of the First World War were:
Aggressive Nationalism – With the increase in colonial competition in the 19th century, the European powers became more and more aggressive in pursuance of their trade interests. Each power was determined to expand its territories and gain new colonies at the expense of the other. As a result, the political atmosphere in Europe became explosive.
Imperialism – Establishing an empire had become both a financial necessity and a status symbol for the European powers. Nations like England, France, Germany, Italy, Russia and Japan were competing with each other, both individually and in alliances, to establish ever larger empires across Asia and Africa.
Secret Treaties – Otto Von Bismarck, the German Chancellor, entered into treaties with Italy and Austria and created the ‘Trilateral Union’. This led to a spate of secret treaties. Russia signed an agreement with France. England entered into treaties with Russia, France and Japan. Such secret pacts created an atmosphere of suspicion and hostility in Europe.
Immediate Cause: The immediate cause of the First World War was the assassination of Austria’s prince Archduke Francis Ferdinand and his wife by an extremist Serbian nationalist in the city of Sarajevo. As a result, Austria issued an ultimatum to Serbia. When Serbia refused to cow down to pressure, Austria declared war on Serbia and thus began the First World War.

The judiciary includes all the courts at different levels in a country and consists of the Supreme Court, High Courts and district courts. The supreme court is the top legal organization.

The Indian courts of law are further divided into two groups: civil courts and criminal courts. The civil courts deal with general disputes regarding land, property, and rights. The Criminal courts deal with cases of murder, riot and looting.

Following can be the limitations of nationalism:
1. the definition of the term ‘Nationalism’ is debated and discussed. It becomes difficult for us to settle on precise and widely accepted definitions which open this term for various interpretations.

2. Territory plays an important role creating the nation and develops the feeling of nationalism among its inhabitants. World is divided into different nation-states with an ongoing process of reshaping of boundaries and separatist struggles within existing states are common.

3. It is not possible for each cultural group to build its own nation-state therefore one nation-state integrate more than one cultural group.

4. Different cultural groups often get engaged in conflicts due to their separate nationalist aspirations and principle which is based on a desire for homogenous identity.

5. The role of Nationalism in this era of globalised world is yet to be completely explored and evaluated as national tendencies have different meaning in a world of interconnectedness.

(a) Absence of domination of one religious group by another is compatible with the ideas of secularism as it allows freedom to all religious groups.
(b) Recognition of a state religion is not compatible with the idea of secularism because it fails to recognize other religious group.
(c) Equal state support to all religions is compatible as it treats all religion equally.
(d) Mandatory prayers in schools is not compatible with the idea of secularism because all human being are not religious.
(e) It is not compatible with the idea of secularism as it grants special priviledge to minorities at the cost of majority.
