Answer 1

The cause that was NOT associated with the initial outbreak of the First World War is the Zimmermann Telegram.

The Zimmermann Telegram was a diplomatic communication sent in January 1917, during the war, by Germany to Mexico, proposing a military alliance against the United States. The initial outbreak of the war, which began in 1914, was primarily influenced by secret military alliances, nationalism, militarization, and imperialism.
