As an AI language model, I don't have access to the image you are referring to. However, I can explain how maps related to the outbreak of World War I. The borders and political alliances shown on the maps of Europe in 1914 are directly related to the outbreak of World War I. The complex system of alliances between various European powers at the time created a situation where any conflict between two nations had the potential to draw in multiple other countries due to treaties and agreements. The assassination of Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria-Hungary in June 1914 sparked tensions between Austria-Hungary and Serbia. Due to their alliances, this conflict quickly escalated into a much larger European war. The political borders of the time also played a role in shaping the events leading up to the war, including the competition between Germany and Britain for dominance in Europe.
