Hi Dean!! BRILIANT!! Dreibund Vertrag, was the pact between the German empire, Austria that then included ungary too, and kingdom of Italy. It was sealed in 1882. Actauly, Italy joined a Zweibund, "pact of 2", of Germany and Austria, that was sealed in 1879. The pact was a defensepact between the countries. The french agresiveness and french warmaking made this very needed for the 3 countries. So yes Bismarck surely is there!! He made the Zweibund and Dreibund. But he was resigned from foreign duties in 1890.

The little text "die Anstifer des ..", means, the instigator of the world war on trial, or, in court, before the judge, to be judged, whatever, where Weltgericht literary means court of the world, or, worldcourt, possibly also judgement day. The ball of fire, above it the archangel Micheal, with a sword, pointed in the direction of the guilty.

The "SERAJEW" or whatever you see? I ~~think!~~ that is something like Sarajevo? Maybe old German or Latin? The murder of Fransz Ferdinand there, they saw as cause for the war! The city you see, must be that.

On the left, you see Austrian kaiser Joseph, German kaiser Wilhelm II, in front of them ofcourse obvious Germania. Right you see Russia zar Alexander, France with the 3-color hat, Marianne, and Italy the king below, also Belgium, Servia. Dark angry clouds over the allieds, for hate, lies, treason .. The letters

Now, Italy, YES, part of Dreibund, but Italy caused the colapseof the pact. Take any historybook and read that Italy was on allied side in the war.

Anyhow, supercard again! Thanks for showing

Bye,
