A- World War 1 was a global war in regards to the people involved in the war. Although Europeans were the main fighters in WW1, regions in Africa (such as Morocco) and Asia (such as India) also took part in the war, because of their interests in Europe. For example, India was considering taking the side of the Triple Entente because they were wanting to go against Britain, who ruled India with a tight fist. But, India ended up taking the side of the Allied powers in the interest of democracy; Britain and other powers of the Allied powers promised India that they would uphold democracy in their region. So, in short, democracy was the main reason that most Asians fought for the Allies.
