Fix it soon!

Also the map is incorrect. Siam (Thailand) was allied with France, U.K. et. al. and its troops saw action on the western front. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.27.142.94 (talk • contribs) also BELGIUM was neutral in 1914 and got dragged into the war because the plan von schliefen called for a 'backdoor' attack on france via belgium.

Actually, the map depicts Belgium correctly; the caption states that the map refers to circumstances in 1915, not 1914. +A.0u 05:00, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

For shame

Wikipedia should be ashamed of such articles as this one. Some of the more idiotic statements:

• Russia was by far the largest of all the six European powers.

  The British Empire was larger and more populous by far.

• loans from France had helped Russia to develop some industry

  Ridiculous oversimplification. In economic terms, Russia was about as strong as France.

  In fact, in 1914, Russia was the fourth largest industrial power in the world, after the U.S., Germany and Great Britain. -Swampfox1942

• Austria recently annexed most of Yugoslavia

  Please check when the term "Yugoslavia" came into being. If you need to refer to Bosnia and Herzegovina, there is no need to sport anachronistic terms.

Since Great Britain was the last to acceed to the concert and it was by no means the most vital member of the alliance, I suggest we discuss her at the bottom of the article, rather than at the top. --Ghirla^-трёп- 22:46, 25 July 2007 (UTC)

When was Triple Entente disassembled?

Russian Empire during WWI turned Communistic/Red, but the Civil war continued into early 1920s. Could somebody give exact dates when each of the three connections between the three empires/states were created and when the links between Russia and the other two were severed? In my opinion, this article is very important to WWI and Interbellum, as well as Communism, and the history of Britain and France, but I still don't label it on the importance scale...

UK- was it 'a number of agreements' or was it '5'? IceDragon64 (talk) 18:56, 23 June 2009 (UTC)

Causes for Entente expansion?

Could someone (who knows, i.e. not me) explain in a bit more detail the reasons for the formation of the triple entente (especially since the triple alliance was formed in the early 1880s, I think, and the triple entente comes 20+ years later) Much appreciated.
