"Europe's Darkest Hour (1878-1923): Why the First World War broke out and how to rebuild after the war" is the representative work of Robert Balmain Mowert, a famous European diplomatic historian and an important founder of modern diplomatic history. It begins with the signing of the Treaty of Berlin in 1878 and ends with the Ruhr Crisis in 1923. It tells in detail the important events in the 45-year history of Europe, and provides an in-depth interpretation of the Balkan crisis, "World War I", the Paris Peace Conference, the League of Nations, and the failed post-war reconstruction of Europe. With deep emotions and rational thinking, the author depicts the greedy expansion of European powers and their tendency to go to war. The victorious countries carried out humiliating and bone-crushing slaughter on the defeated countries. After the war, the European powers lost their rationality and fell into madness, thus plunging Europe into the darkest moments of viciousness.
