In those three years, Europe had lost more men in battle than in all the wars of the previous three centuries. The war had claimed the lives of millions and had changed countless lives forever. The Great War, as the conflict came to beknown, affected everyone. It touched not only the soldiers in the trenches, but civilians as well. ethonreyes https://padlet.com/ethonreyes/1adx2p3ynaec/wish/321003482 Governments Wage Total War: countries devoted all their resources to the war effort.

In his place a provisional government was established. The new government pledged to continue fighting the war. However, by 1917, nearly 5.5 million Russian soldiers had been wounded, killed, or taken prisoner. As a result, the war-weary Russian army refused to fight any longer.



The Central Powers Collapse: Russia’s withdrawal from the war at last allowed  Germany to send nearly all its forces to the Western Front. In March 1918, the Germans mounted one final, massive attack on the Allies in France. As in the opening weeks of the war, the German forces crushed everything in their path. By late May 1918, the Germans had again reached the Marne River. Paris was less than 40miles away. Victory seemed within reach. US sent a large army which eventually ended the war

The Conflict Grinds Along: The plan called for attacking and defeating france in the west and then rushing to the east to fight Russia.

War in the Trenches: By early 1915, opposing armies on the western front had dug miles of parallel trenches to protect themselves from enemy fire. This set the stage for what became known as trench warfare.
