Didnt WW1 start with an abduction ?

No.. it started with the assassination of the Archduke Ferdinand, heir to the throne of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, by a Serbian nationalist, Princip.

But all of the nations involved in WWI were just looking for an excuse to go to war against one another in order to advance their imperialistic goals. The assassination was just an excuse.
