Three Emperors Battle

The Three Emperors’ Battle was a significant conflict in 1887 between Germany, Austria-Hungary, and Russia, sparked by territorial tensions in the Balkans. Germany, seeking stability, favored Austria-Hungary, while Russia supported Slavic nations like Serbia. The battle was more political and diplomatic than a direct military confrontation, with each empire trying to maintain influence and balance of power in Europe. The conflict was ultimately resolved through diplomacy at the Congress of Berlin, which aimed to reduce tensions and redraw borders to prevent future war. It highlights the complex alliances and regional interests that contributed to the lead-up of World War I.
