Description:World War One: A Concise History - The Great War The First World War was supposed to be the war that ended all wars, hence the name, the Great War.The Great War was off to a bad start from the German perspective. The plan was to fend off France and Russia while focusing on the main purpose, helping Austria-Hungary deal with Serbia. While the Germans were attempting to end the war quickly in Europe, France and Britain zipped south to Africa where Germany had a protectorate in Togoland. On August 7, 1914, France and Britain attacked Togoland. Germany retaliated three days later by attacking South Africa. The battles continued for the rest of the war years in Africa.Trench warfare was a massive part of the war. The concept of trench warfare started when the Germans were defeated in their initial attack on France. The trenches did not always have the most elaborate latrines and it was not always possible to have the dead bodies moved out quickly, so the watery mud would also have body waste and corpses rotting in it.The United States had joined the war on April 6, 1917. The Americans had tried to remain neutral but finally, the country had no choice but to declare war on Germany.The British Empire at the time of the Great War was considered “the empire on which the sun never sets.” This is because of the expansion of the previous two centuries that covered nearly one-quarter of the world. The phrase simply meant that the British Empire was so vast that the sun was always shining somewhere on British territories.The loss of life in the Great War was immense. This was a tumultuous situation.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
