War and its effects

soldiers do not only suffer on the battlefield. Veterans often needed long-term care due to the physical and psychological impact of war. In addition to physical problems either made worse or caused by war, emotional problems could also be brought on by conflict. The First World War is often associated with shell shock. This was first believed to have a physical cause,mainly brought on by the impact of loud shelling. However, it became noted that soldiers who had never been exposed to shells were developing the same symptoms. During the Battle of the Somme , there was a severe rise in the number of cases found.

Civilian populations often have to deal with the after effects of war. They include damage to buildings such as hospitals and to medical care, often a result of a shortage of doctors. A number of countries, especially in Asia and the middle eastern countries, have had to deal with the devastating effects of land mines on the local people.

Derek Riggs (born 13 February 1958) is a contemporary British artist best known for creating the band Iron maidens 's mascot, "Eddie the head".orn in Portsmouth, Riggs is a self-taught artist, both in his traditional painting and in his digital work. He also attended art school, but he was expelled after complaining about the course. Riggs' most famous achievement is his work with Iron maiden and his creation of Eddie, the band's mascot and subject of their album and single covers. Riggs' first picture of Eddie was originally entitled "Electric Matthew Says Hello," and was actually painted for a possible punk cover. Iron Maiden's management came across it while looking through Riggs' portfolio, and asked him to add hair to the figure to make it look less punk-like.
