Can someon tell me facts abou WORLD WAR 1 ???

Question

I JUST WANT TO NOW ALL THE MAIN DETAILS PLEASE {SUMMARY}

Answer 1

europe was in termoil just waiting for a fuse to be light.

that fuse was light finally when serbians killed the austrian ambassador (or some position).

Austria demanded reprimendation which was denied.

Austria looked for support and found it in Germany, Turkey, and one other country.

Howveer Serbia found allies (some all ready formed) in Russia, Britian, and France.

what started out as a skirmish grew when German interests in the west were threatented. To throw the Allies off of the crisis in the Balkans, Germany invades france.

This didnt work out too well.

Russia begins put pressure on the germans and they send troops east.

Combined with the invasion and internal problems, Russia collapses and soon revolts and forms the soviet union.

Germany's failue at a quick victory in France starts a 4 year trench war.

Germany starts to blockade england hoping to starve em to death and nearly did.

Due to provocation, in 1918 the U.S. finally enters the war and helps end the german grip in the atlantic.

Weakened and beaten the germans lose their allies and finally surrender in nov 1918

Answer 2

The facts of many wars often get published in memoirs.
Here are three memoirs that are well worth reading:
'Generals Die in Bed' by Charles Yale Harrison, acclaimed as one of "the best of the war books" by the New York Evening Standard in 1930. Written by an American who joined the Canadian Expeditionary Force.
'His Time in Hell: A Texas Marine in France' by Warren J. Jackson, written in the late 1920s, this story found its way to publication after George B. Clark discovered the manuscript in a special collection at the University of Texas.
'All Quiet on the Western Front' by Erich Maria Remarque is probably the most well-known memoir from the German side of WWI. The book sold millions of copies, and was made into a film twice.

World War I, also known as WWI (abbreviation), the First World War, the Great War, and "The War to End All Wars", was a global military conflict that took place mostly in Europe between 1914 and 1918. It left millions dead and re-shaped the modern world.

The Allied Powers, led by France, Russia, the British Empire, and later, Italy and the US, defeated the Central Powers: Austria-Hungary, the German Empire, Bulgaria and the Ottoman Empire.

Much of the fighting in World War I took place along the Western Front, within a system of opposing manned trenches and fortifications (separated by an unoccupied space between the trenches called "no man's land") running from the North Sea to the border of Switzerland. On the Eastern Front, the vast eastern plains and limited rail network prevented a trench warfare stalemate from developing, although the scale of the conflict was just as large. Hostilities also occurred on and under the sea and — for the first time — from the air. More than nine million soldiers died on the various battlefields, and millions more civilians perished.

The war caused the disintegration of four empires: the Austro-Hungarian, German, Ottoman, and Russian. Germany lost its overseas empire, and new states such as Czechoslovakia, Estonia, Finland, Latvia and Yugoslavia were created, and in the cases of Lithuania and Poland, recreated.

World War I created a decisive break with the old world order that had emerged after the Napoleonic Wars, which was modified by the mid-19th century’s nationalistic revolutions. The outcomes of World War I would be important factors in the development of World War II 21 years later.
