In 1893, France formed a military alliance with Russia, known as the Franco-Russian Alliance. This alliance was established in response to the growing threat from Germany and the Triple Alliance of Germany, Austria-Hungary, and Italy. The Franco-Russian Alliance stipulated that if either France or Russia was attacked, the other would come to its defense, thereby solidifying their cooperation against potential aggression from the Central Powers.
