They did not have Submarines and planes with machine guns on them., or chemical warfare. They had guns and horses most of the time to help them win the war. Most of the time, attacks on the other side happened during a surprise attack when the other side was not ready for it.  War before WW1 also had to rely on mail from horses instead of telegraphs and phones like they did in WW1

Trenches were specifically designed to protect soldiers from artillery and machine guns.

When soldiers would mount the trenches into what was known as “No Man's Land” they were exposed directly into enemy fire. Mounting the trenches became rarely effective and was a huge risk for mass casualties if attempted.

They were used to protect soldiers to cross enemy lines better and shoot and kill enemies in the process.

It happened in the trenches when either side could not advance to the other. Soldiers would spend week, even months sometimes in a stalemate with nowhere to go. Soldiers would hide out in the trenches and try to make advancements as best they could.

It gave the allies the advantage to win the war.

It was also used to help ground troops in battle. Aircrafts would drop bombs and grenades into trenches then when soldiers would evacuate the trenches, the planes would use their on board machine guns to gun down the soldiers.
