Yes. No one called World War 1 by the name World War 1 until after World War 2 started. It was called the Great War by most people. BTW, World War 2 was called The Great Patriotic War in the Soviet Union.

Yes they are the same thing. The great war was supposed to be the war to end all wars, but Adolph had other idea's about that.
