As it is stated in the passage, the 1914 July crisis ----.
The influence of technology on diplomacy can be

German foreign minister Arthur Zimmermann to the
German Mission in Mexico and intercepted by the
British) instructed the German representative to start

of New Mexico, Utah and California after the war. The
Zimmermann telegram was leaked at a time when the
American public were still neutral and not ready to join
World War I. It prompted the United States to join the
Allied forces. The most illustrative case study of the
influence of the telegraph on diplomacy was the 1914
July crisis that led to the beginning of the World War I.
Telegraph messages were being sent between St.
Petersburg, Berlin, Belgrade, Vienna, Paris and other
countries involved in the conflict. However, there was
