This Causes of World War I lesson investigates how the Moroccan Crises of 1905/6 and Agadir in 1911 helped cause international tension which ultimately led to the outbreak of WWI in 1914. Students will look at how relationships change through the 1905/6 crisis and how this leads greater tension at the end of the Agadir Crisis in 1911.
