William Himself
When I searched him up on the internet, I could not find him in any article, not even in Wikipedia, they usually have everyone there.

Nationalism
A lot of nations viewed other nations as competitors, willing to go to war to show their dominance. Different places had split up into many differently named areas, so people were split into which areas they supported. Some people would go as far as killing innocent people who they didn’t even know, just because they were loyal to their own country. -
Imperialism
Different countries were taking over smaller places for a lot of different reasons. One of them was for military positions, their country might need a good spot to refuel different equipment, while still having an advantage in location and cover. another was for cultural; people thought that everyone should have the exact same religion as them. -
