My point exactly. We all kind of collectively went "How can I take advantage of this?" and dog-piled in. The result? A horrifically enormous war. Real countries try to avoid this kind of escalation.
We embrace it.
Edit: real modern countries, at least. Which are the ones we presumably live in and would be in charge of.
OOC: I think you can make compelling geopolitical arguments for why this war escalated the way it did. In OTL, the balance of power was less tenuous and more centralized in Europe, whereas in this time line the power is divided among several much more disparate political entities.

My forces were fighting a minor power in Italy, in a more or less defensive manner. I wasn't too dedicated to the war, and was completely neutral in the Great War. Which I was.

Then you're not neutral, you're involved.
It was an entirely separate conflict.
