how many people died in world war 1,. Germany, 1914?

Answer 1

As a result of World War I, nearly two and a half million Germans died. Germany, with about 11 million soldiers mobilized out of a population of about 65 million, sustained 52% of the casualties within the Central Powers (with a total population of 143 million).

Total casualty figure for WWI, from both sides, was about 40 million, with almost half of that being deaths, both military (9,720,453) and civilian (8,865,649), out of a population of 933 million from countries involved. Specific figures [1] for Germany are 2,036,897 military and 426,000 civilian deaths, for a total of 2,462,897. (This is in addition to 4,247,143 who were wounded.)

While the precise number for a given year may be incalculable, it is possible to make an estimate and to set an upper bound for the number who died in Germany during the year 1914.

Obviously, not all of them died in the year 1914, so the upper bound is less than 2.4 million, with a monthly average of about 45,000. The war began at the end of July so only 7 of its 53 months (until November 11th, 1918) were in 1914. A good guess, therefore, might be about 315,000 -- but I don't know how linear the monthly casualty statistics were.

Perhaps monthly figures are available somewhere, but without them that's the best I can do.

The Arch Duke od Austria Hungary and his wife Sophia where in a parade and a 19 year old guy from Serbia who was a member of the black hand walked up to the car and assassinated them. Austria wanted Serbia to let them come into the country and find him or they would declare war on them. They chose war and they called Russia their allie to help them. Sense Russia was getting involved France had to get involved because they where allies. Britain wanted to stay out of it but had to get involved when Germany invaded neutral country Belgium! it lasted from 1914-1918 Russia got out 1917 the same year America got in. The Treaty basically said the war is over and the whole thing was Germany's fault! That they were not aloud to have a military. And all of this left Germany broke and angry. So The treaty basically set the world up for World War 2

Where was he from? If US, which branch of the military? Most states in the US had a published memorial book that had small photos of the soldiers from that state that died. Such books are available at state archives and some libraries state & family history sections - so check at your local branch. Some of these books have been scanned - so you might try a search engine search esp. if you find the title in the state library's catalog. If he was American, look at nara.gov for information on how to get copies of pension applications from his widow and the like - that should have more info. But the biggest source would likely be his siblings or widow's memorabilia. If that is not available the hometown paper would be your next best bet - and chances are the county historical society might have it indexed or a special collection - newspapers might have letters, description of how he died, and a funeral description. Edit: What country are you in? If your family moved to America or England there is a small chance that their citizenship papers might include details on your grandfather. And actually they might have had to file papers during WW2 if they were in the US. There are various registries for foreign nationals - some held at state archives and some at NARA branches.
