1. Archduke Ferdinand arriving in Sarajevo
2. Declaration of war in Paris
3. Peace rally in London
4. British recruiting station
5. Canadian troop train
6. Various armies on the march
7. The "taxis of the Marne"
8. French 75 guns

10. British troops receiving their rations
11. French refugees fleeing the front
12. Aftermath of the sack of Louvain
13. Still-picture slideshow of battles and aftermath

The song is "No One Would Riot For Less" by Bright Eyes.

Write about it.

Link me.

IT IS CUPCAKE TIME.
