Arms control and armed terrorism.
Up to the end of the Boer War about 1902, armed conflict was limited to rifles, machine guns, big clumsy field guns, and antiquated-looking battleships. Machine guns are kind of nasty, but there was nothing that illegal combatants or enemy states could use to create a really difficult problem with.
By the end of World War I there were repeater rifles, hand grenades, poison gas, long-range accurate artillery, bomber aeroplanes, and tanks. All of these put a new dimension on illegal violence - they can cause a whole lot more fatalities before the established state regains control.

the 1st worldwide conflict took it somewhat is toll on the finished of Europe and Britain replaced into no exception. Leaving aside the great kind of human lives lost, the final fee of the conflict delivered Britain very on the fringe of the sting of a financial abyss, from which there would have been no return. there replaced into great unemployment. best Minister David Lloyd George's promise of "a land in high quality condition for heroes" became empty and wounded and maimed infantrymen getting back from the front had to sell their medals so as to eat. while that funds ran out, they became to begging. Housing replaced into in severe call for, yet in very short supply. foodstuff replaced into very costly and inflation replaced into severe. It replaced right into a dreadful time and one that replaced into to final for the subsequent 2 a protracted time until the rustic went floundering into the twelve months 1939.

Well, how resolved is the question of biochemical warfare? It was introduced with mustard gas in the trenches during WWI.

Think of it this way.
WW1 Leads to
WW2 which then leads to
the U.S becoming extremely militarized which causes
Fascism with privitazation of the military.
